Hey there, welcome!



Quick question. Have there been many cases in the past where Bandai Namco have taken fan suggestions and invested hundreds of thousands of dollars into the project? I'm asking with sincerity, I have no idea.



Otherwise.... oh goodness. Quite the project you have in mind. You'll probably find it difficult to find others to have the same passion in this project as you, especially when it would require a lot of 'leg work' from volunteers as well.



As for my perspective, take it from someone who has attempted to pitch a board game to the folks at Nickelodeon, directly to a VP (and we're talking a formal conference call meeting), you need to talk to the right person and have a full business plan on your side before your idea would be taken seriously.



In my experience even massive Fan Petitions for localizations or new projects are largely ignored. Tonnes of funding is spent on research and development, focus groups, cost benefit analysis, and so on. I don't want to come across too negative, so take my words with a grain of salt. I'm just speaking from my own experiences.



This does sound like a fun pet-project though.
