this is just for pure spiculation but does anyone think that since bandai make kamen rider climax heroes engine from the garbaride machine and now will bandai will make a sentai game off from dice-o? i really hope they do because i have been wanting a sentai game for years. i dont care if it's for the wii or ps2 i just want a sentai game.

Well, dude that's kinda of a pipe dream but it depends on sales and demand.

1) If the Sales of Kamen Rider climax Heroes are very good in Bandai terms (I kinda doubt it since Japanese people don't buy fightng games for consoles) They will either make a sequel or a Super Sentai Version

2) The Demand. Let's not sugarcoat this. Super Sentai isn't as very recieved in Japan as much as Kamen Rider that being said. I highly doubt there will be a demand for a super sentai game

3) Development. This isn't Kamen Rider we're talking about this **** is alot harder Seeing as like what Disney did for that Power Rangers game for the DS. Bandai will have to do the same. You know pick random colors from random shows and as past power ranger games have showned Mecha fights aren't really performed that well except MMPR for the Sega Genesis.

Overall: Is this topic on the heel of Kamen Rider getting it's own fighting game and now Ultraman? Well don't get you hopes up for a home console Sentai game just be glad Bandai released any kind of Super Sentai Video Game.

I'll go out on a limb and assume that's speculation (spiculation is something different entirely) It's entirely possible that they may make a console based sentai game, though they really haven't done one since Hurricanger (everything since else has been a western developed game) where as they only skipped two years on the console based Rider games.

Generally I think the Rider franchise tends to lend itself better to games than sentai, as it's easier to keep it to a single genre as the franchise is more geared towards infighting than sentai (generally speaking) Plus while you can have an essentially level playing field with a Rider game (fighting that is) you're not given quite the same options with Sentai unless they have separate modes for regular heroes and villains, and giant robots and villains. You could hardly achieve a sense of balance otherwise, you'd end up with extremely outclassed matches like DekaPink vs GekiFire.
 
Yeah Sentai is definitely more work than Rider. Of course, if they were to REALLY put the work in for a great anniversary game, then they would both be difficult. A great game would have Sentai across all generations (with Goranger & JAKQ, Changeman, Bioman, Flashman, Mask & Liveman, and of course--Jetman, Dairanger, Carranger, and GoGoV...on into the 2000s), with all of their mecha as well as their most iconic villains in each series.

You may get that, one day, but even more awesome would be if they didn't put it on the Wii which gives them an excuse to slack on the graphics and other bits of the game.
 
I have a feeling that they'll release another Sentai game on consoles after Battle Dice-O, but it'll most likely be on either the PS2 or the Wii. Don't expect any HD Sentai games anytime soon.
