Looks like there's reason to hold out hope for a North American release of PlayStation 3 JoJo's Bizzare Adventure fighter All Star Battle. Though there's been no official announcement, or anything close, Namco Bandai has registered the All Star Battle trademark, similar to how the publisher snagged Pirate Warriors months before the One Piece game announcement.
In more solid news, game developer CyberConnect2, (Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm) has confirmed that super powered mafioso Giorno Giovanna and Guido Mista from the fifth iteration of the evolving manga, "Vento Aureo," will be playable.
