Unofficial tournament in Milano, Italy

[avatar7]

A friend found these videos which are yet another proof that Naruto CCG is very popular Worldwide and Bandai should consider making it official outside North America. Apparently it's a tournament for the new/current block format, and they even have a judge. Seems properly organized and attended. Here is a match from it:

Just erase the space between "you" and "tube" in the URL.

Or you can click this as well as this as the "New User Guide" explains.

One tournament in a city of one country proves nothing actually. for all we know it's literally the only place that ever heard of it. As for a tourney supported by Bandai, We don't know how much it would cost to ship everything for an SJC to a foreign country, and on top of that how many people attended this tournament. From what i'm finding and hearing (though my italian is highly noobish) it sounds like a max of maybe 20 people showed. That's (even with as bad as it's been here) still worse than any SJC in the US.
As it is Bandai hasn't had an SJC in Canada yet for the fear of low attendance, and so Canadians have had to hop on here and voice their opinion and want for one, while also letting bandai know many people show up to locals and chunins. If Italy does the same (in much greater numbers being across the world) or any other country for that matter, then it's not an impossibility, but despite what you constantly insist this games majority fanbase is the US. Plain and simple.
PS - That second video is a surge deck, not block legal.

Because 3 more people in Colorado makes so much difference.

(I'm just throwing out percentages) those 3 people are like 5 percent of the Naruto gaming population; seeing how small it is. So those three people make a colossal difference.

Precisely ^
It even says in the opening post, this game is popular worldwide. It's not as played here in the US so every person counts.

That'sd my assumption that 20 people showed up, considering literally the only videos or info i found on it was a top 8 list I couldnt translate and videos showing off that deck they named "aggro" (yet it's an earth deck :/) I just know I heard in a sentence "20 people shows" (Which I think maybe I mistranslated "showed" is all)

The Naruto CCG Community consists of 60 players. Let's all make up percentages.
