This Friday, March 1, 2013 we will continue our campaign with a fourth mass-social media posting to renew interest in the Breath of Fire series and show Capcom that fans would love to see a sequel to the resting IP.

Participants for this Friday mass-posting are asked to do the following (and for the first of every month after):

  • “Like” the Breath of Fire Facebook and Twitter page.
  • “Like” and post on Capcom’s official Facebook page about Breath of Fire, requesting a sequel, re-releases/remakes, expressing your love for Breath of Fire, etc.
  • Similarly, “Like” and post on Capcom UK’s official Facebook page with the above. I would particularly like fans to request a digital re-release of the PC version of Breath of Fire IV and a request for Europe to get Breath of Fire IV on Playstation Network, which has been on the Japanese and North American online stores for a while.
  • Follow and tweet @Capcom_Unity with BoF6 requests as well, likewise with @Capcom_UK and @CapcomUnityJp.
  • Register for the Capcom-Unity forums and post in the Breath of Fire discussion group. Feel free to make new threads under Game Discussion that discuss elements of Breath of Fire games.
  • A few threads about Breath of Fire exist on the Ask Capcom section. Please post in those and start up some discussions (links are below)!
  • Log into your PSN account (or if you don’t have one yet, create one here) and vote UP on the following two fan requests:
  • Breath of Fire III & IV on PSN
  • Breath of Fire 3 download in the U.S.
  • NEW: Post on the official Sony Playstation Facebook page, requesting a PSN release of Breath of Fire III for North America. Capcom is currently in talks with SCEA about possibly giving another go for the game, which was initially rejected by Sony six years ago.

Capcom-Unity threads you can post in (feel free to create new ones):

Possible release of Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter as a PS2 Classics title?

Breath of Fire Series Merchandise

Sticky: Breath of Fire Group/discussion Thread

Has a Capcom game ever made you emotional?

If you have the funds, purchase the following:

  • If you own a Wii or Wii U in North America, Europe or Japan, purchase Breath of Fire II on the Virtual Console for 800 Wii Points.
  • If you own a PSP, PS3, or Vita in Europe or Japan, purchase Breath of Fire III (PSP) on PSN (Great Britain link enclosed).
  • If you own a PSP, PS3 or Vita in North America or Japan, purchase Breath of Fire IV on PSN (US link enclosed).

Due to differing time zones, you’re free to begin your posts starting at midnight on March 1.

Some basic rules:

1. Don’t spam. Basically, don’t constantly tweet or Facebook post the same thing. You can keep different types of posts going throughout the day, but don’t be overbearing. For Capcom’s Unity forums, threads with Breath of Fire-related subjects are fine.  Different BoF threads on Capcom’s Game Discussion and Ask Capcom forum sections are OK if they’re about different subjects (ex. one is about requesting Breath of Fire IV on PSN in UK, another is about your favorite version of Ryu or Nina, etc.).

2. Don’t be negative. There is no reason to attack a company or its employees just because they’re not doing what you want them to do. Keep this positive, and focus on the fact that you’d love to see the Breath of Fire series revitalized.

3. Respect your fellow peers. Some may hold different opinions about the games than you do, but that doesn’t make it an excuse to attack them for liking or disliking a specific title.
