Capcom’s tank too slow

Steel Battalion slips a bit in Japan

One of Capcom's most intriguing Xbox prospects, Tekki (the vertical tank game with a controller the size of Brighton pier), has slipped from its original Japanese release date of August 22nd and will now appear on September 5th. Capcom hasn't given any particular reason for the delay, but it wouldn't be too surprising to imagine this knocking the US and European release dates back a bit. Presumably Capcom has had difficulty acquiring enough Nimitz-class aircraft carriers to transport the game's proprietary controller around. Related Feature - Steel Battalion screenshots
