Remember how when Shifty look announced that they were shutting down, that they said the franchises they represented were being talked about at conventions and stuff like that? Did that REALLY do anything?
I was crossing my fingers for a Klonoa (Or Tales) song to be in Smash but they seem to want to focus more on Namco's arcade games because of Pac Man which is fair enough.I still have a glimmer of hope for a new game but I don't think it will happen. They could have handled the remake a bit better in terms of Pricing and the changes they made so I don't think that the series is a complete lost cause. Of course it's very unlikely the klonoa fanbase will grow without a new game, especially with Shiftylook's death (They were pretty cool rip). Also if they made a new game I personally think that Klonoa himself could do with a minor redesign, yeah I really like Klonoa's design as it is but another forum I had Klonoa as my avatar and most people thought it was a Sonic OC. Embarrassment aside, I realised that most people who look at Klonoa just assume he's a Sonic clone and just ignore it (Huepow sounding kinda like tails in the remake doesn't help). Especially now as Sonic's reputation is back into the gutter after Boom and will remain for a good few years now I think they might have to make some changes to give Klonoa a stronger identity when first looked at. I know Klonoa and Sonic have almost no similarities aside from them both being platformers with furries but as a lot of people have never even heard of Klonoa the first impression is the most important.TL;DR New game Unlikely, Klonoa's design may need some changes so people's first impressions aren't "Sonic Clone".

Question. Why do we have to care about Klonoa's popularity when Namco seems not to care about it at all?
