Living Room Games Versus Capcom© — Fight!

Dallas, TX. – August 28, 2003 – Living Room Games announced today that it has acquired the license to publish the tabletop roleplaying games for several well-known titles from Japanese video game powerhouse, CAPCOM CO., LTD.

“Living Room Games is striving to help give the hobby games industry a boost, by combining our products with other aspects of mass media,” says Joe Chan, president and lead developer for the Living Room Games/CAPCOM tabletop fighting game line. “We have planned a multi-phase approach to achieve these goals, of which the license of several classic CAPCOM titles is the first, big step. We look forward to working with CAPCOM throughout the next couple of years to bring to the market the best products possible.

“CAPCOM’s fighting games have such a significant history, which has left an unmistakeable mark in the video game industry. The opportunity that has been granted to us to allow us to bring even more life to the characters in these games, and their stories, is a great honor to us. The people that we have brought on board for the project have always been tremendous fans of CAPCOM video games, and they are absolutely ecstatic over their assignments.”

Marc Mostman of Most Management LLC, CAPCOM’s North American licensing ageny, added, “Living Room Games has shown great initiative in the tabletop roleplaying arena, and their enthusiasm in bringing CAPCOM’s classic fighting characters back into that world is exciting especially at this time when CAPCOM is unleashing a new slate of licensed merchandise in conjuntion with Street Fighter’s 15th Anniversary in 2004. CAPCOM is confident that Living Room Games will do these games justice.”
