They'd want to push it as much as possible, I'd think. Going for both makes more sense in my eyes as it's then in the public eye more.
I don't think it has any bearing. Adventure of Dai is a finished series, and is one of SJ's most successful series
No, I don't feel that way.
I don't think it affects Erdrick or DQ chances in any negative way. But if the problem before in getting Dai in the Jump crossovers was Horii or the SE administration, it seems gone now so at least in that regard the rights aspect seems getting weaker.
It's also quite popular in Latin America. The anime aired in many countries alongside many other anime series in the 90's and there's also the complete manga translated as well.
With Tansut on board? I doubt it. SE would have no involvement in the licensing of Adventure of Dai, and if I'm not mistaken his connection is to SE.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure Dai is just Toriyama, considering he's not a game-represented DQ character. I don't think this has any positive or even negative bearing on Erdrick whatsoever.
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking as well. They're totally separate games.
I'm pretty sure that people can identify which game because one has Mario, Link, and DK; and the other has Goku, Naruto, and Kenshin. Plus Erdrick is a character that has two alts by default (Male and Female) while Dai is just Dai.

In this case, it would be like Pokemon. SE has veto power since they own the DQ IP. They can say yes or no, but that's about were their involvement ends. SE is only involved because it's using the DQ name, much like how Nintendo isn't involved in the production of the Pokemon anime.
I wouldn't consider this a double dip. Dai is solely representing a Manga rather than the DQ series as a whole.
While you have a point, it still begs the question on how Dai wasn't leaked like how Erdick was (would he so be in) especially when we have something that connects the two which is Namco Bandai on top of Square Enix would the attachment Coco sent is true. Something doesn't add up if you ask me
I haven't seen ANYTHING for Jump Force leaked.
Golly, it looks like you're having trouble with leakers telling you things that don't happen.
I don't see it affecting Erdrick when it's someone else being added to Jump Force.
Same here... which begs the question
I dunno about that honestly, for one now that I've seen footage of the game it seems to be being worked on by the team that worked on One Piece Burning Blood and has a lot of characters in the game. That game didn't leaked its roster either but Smash leaks happen a bit more often than Nintendo likes.
Gex could be Square Enix's assist trophy that isn't from a playable series (like Rathalos for Capcom and Akira for Sega), though I'd prefer Marina Lightyears considering they own Mischief Makers.
I would imagine both would be aimed for different events, maybe they were intended to be revealed to coincide with a new project regarding both franchises. Plus, I doubt the DBFZ tournament would be a good time to announce given the season 2 of DBFZ is heavily anticipated now and would get overshadowed.
It's possible this was slated to be revealed at Jump Festa and, for whatever reason, the advertising that was planned after wasn't fixed to accomodate.
Still doesn't change the fact that we have a crossover game containing some of the biggest anime and manga characters around the globe, and yet there is no leak at all with the Dragon Quest (or at all for that matter) yet somehow people know that Erdick is coming for Smash... Two games that are both developed by Namco Bandai and potentially have a character from the same Square franchise... You are absolutely right about your GameFAQs part, but I still can't help but feel that something is off here.
The lack of information doesn't mean something is wrong or suspicious. Smash is the bigger name and there's likely to be far more people involved in it than for Jump Force, especially at SE who's only real involvement in JF is allowing the DQ name to be in it. SE doesn't actually own Dai. Nobody's going to be asking people at SE (Which seems to be where Verge got his info) if Jump Force will have SE representation in it.
The guest did happen. it was the newly revealed JP Voices of Veronica and Jade.
Jump Force is not being developed by Namco actually, they are just publishing it. The developer for the game just like Burning Blood is Spike Chunsoft. And while the game itself contains some of the biggest franchises in Manga, its not really that much open to speculation really considering the series is contained by the limitation of being published in Jump.
This is Jump Fiesta we are talking about. Not a game like Brawhalla. While Smash might be a bigger game, Jump Fiesta isn't exactly some small indie title... So sorry, I have to disagree there. Also if you look at the attachment that Coco added in the post 8771, Square would be involved in Dai's inclusion
Okay, I can admit that I missed that. But the rest of the claim about not so sturdy grounds for the leakers still remains intact
It's all speculation. People who 'believe' the hearsay may get surprised. And depending on where you look, there's plenty of skeptical people.Still doesn't change the fact that we have a crossover game containing some of the biggest anime and manga characters around the globe, and yet there is no leak at all with the Dragon Quest (or at all for that matter) yet somehow people know that Erdick is coming for Smash...

It doesn't help that the leakers track record with Nintendo recently, with lack of Metroid, no Square character at the VGA and someone NON had heard of at that (there is no way in hell that trailer would be able to be put out in the last minute, I can tell you that right now as an animation maniac that the quality of the animation is NOT last minute... whoever tries to use that as a defense of why the supposed square character wasn't shown at VGA knows jack **** about animation) and the supposed Nintendo direct that was going to happen this month. And don't get me started on that supposed guest that never happen at Jump Fiesta.
On top of all that, this supposed Brave that is datamined has people questioning if it is someone like Sora (and no I'm not a Sora supporter, I'm a Geno and Sephiroth on a personal "want list" of square characters) who just so happens to have a game getting released around the corner..
So excuse me but I feel like you all are getting your guard down... Awesome for you Dragon Quest fans, if he/she gets, in, but how you can say Erdick is the most likely with all things considered is beyond me
I'm the person who made that post in the attachment. SE's involvement in Adventure of Dai is the same as Nintendo's involvement in the Pokemon Anime. Adventure of Dai is not owned by SE.This is Jump Fiesta we are talking about. Not a game like Brawhalla. While Smash might be a bigger game, Jump Fiesta isn't exactly some small indie title... So sorry, I have to disagree there. Also if you look at the attachment that Coco added in the post 8771, Square would be involved in Dai's inclusion
