Today, Atlus announced that it is bringing the PSP brawler, Kenka Bancho 3, to the US. Atlus Manager of PR and Sales Aram Jabbari comments: "Kenka Bancho 3 is a terrific brawler with all the action and humor PSP system owners crave. That said, the game is also called 'Kenka Bancho 3,' which, without translation, may not be the most intuitive title for non-Japanese speaking gamers. Therefore, we're going to open things up for our fans to help us pick the game's new North American title. We wouldn't be in this situation if my suggestion for the title, Buncha Banchos, had been accepted, but you know, whatever."
Fans of Atlus' quirky gaming endeavors can head to the official forum and check out the naming survey. One of our personal favorites is "Badass Rumble," but we'd also be more than happy if the game kept its Japanese title.
Kenka Bancho 3 puts players in control of a high school student on a class trip to a "historic Japanese city." During this trip, the student (a "bancho," or a tough, badass fighter) scours the locale for 47 different bancho rivals to fight against with a variety of hand-to-hand techniques -- and possibly eye lasers. Players can expect plenty of hidden awards, events and characters, as well as a New Game+ option for maximizing replay value. In Kenka Bancho 3, players can follow the game's storyline or just explore the city and rough up some suckers with extreme prejudice. The game will also feature a two-player cooperative mode.
