When speaking to Kotaku’s Brian Ashcraft, Ben Judd, Capcom’s Producer of all things Bionic Commando, claimed that:

“We still have a fucking ace up our sleeve. It’s an ace, a fucking ace… At TGS (Tokyo Game Show), the Capcom booth stage is going to make people’s balls pucker up. It’s going to be big. ”

When pressed further, Judd refused to reveal any additional info, but on the subject of more prudent matters, Judd added that Bionic Commando: Rearmed is doing well and expects Bionic Commando 3D to do exponentially better:

“Store retail games always do better than downloadable games,”

Ultimately, I’m not quite sure whether or not I should be excited about any of this. I mean, as far as I’m aware, my testicles have not  puckered. In addition, it doesn’t sound like the most pleasant of experiences. On the other hand, it must be awesome to cause bodily malfunction in the manner Judd implies.

Freudian slip? Maybe. He did say “ace” a few times. Could this have something to do with the Ace Attorney series? In all honesty, the only titles Capcom could announce that have any chance of puckering my balls would be Marvel vs Capcom 3 or Capcom vs SNK 3 in the style of Street Fighter IV.

So while I fear for my balls, I’m issuing a challenge to Capcom — bring it!!
