I think the key is the ratio of people who are just casual fans of Suikoden is much smaller than for most other games.
Most people never played any of the games in the first place but if they did they fall squarely in two camp. Either they didn't really care for them at all for whatever reason, or they're the kind of fan that would happily support a Kickstarter. I mean sure, there are plenty of people somewhere in the middle too, but I believe it's a smaller group than other games. So when a kickstarter like this comes around, the comparatively smallish Suikoden fanbase come out in force.
