That picture reminds me of the unknown planet from Star Wars: KoToR.
OT: Well, there's always imports.

Nintendo of Europe Hears RPG Fans' Pleas
- Thread starter Marshall Honorof
- Start date
Give us a PAL release of Xenosaga Episode 1 and 3, Grandia 3, Radiata Stories, the original Chrono Trigger release, Final Fantasy Tactics etc and We will consider the possibility of allowing you to have these 3 games. Until then, I'll enjoy the hell out of playing them.
at the Wii's low price point, I might as well just buy another Wii and homebrew mod my old one. I did the same thing with my PS2s once they got cheap enough.
Uhm we get screwed over by getting games late AND some games not being released here you know. Chrono Cross comes to mind. Lunar 2 Eternal Blue. No More Heroes 1 was cut though. Uhm Special Editions for consoles you get over there aren't released over here sometimes (not that it matters THAT much but just to make my point). And remember the Euro price for the Vita? And its Dollar price? ^^ Yeah.lumenadducere said:
I know it's all rather old games I mentioned. I am not keeping up with game releases anymore and it's too bothersome looking up on which games that weren't released in Germany - where I live - and were also denied the rest of Europe.
In Germany's case I can name a few though =3
Mad World, Gears of War series, Dead Rising, Condemned series, Prototype, Ninja Gaiden 2 among a few others. You don't see any of us whine about them not being released o.o We just get them elsewhere: the UK or Austria for example.
Please don't speak about you guys - excuse my language - getting the shaft on this cause honestly: just compare the Dollar Vita price to the Yen and Euro price and it should be pretty obvious who is screwed and who isn't. This is one instance where Europe is favoured for once and it sticks out that much because it happens THAT rarely. So how about granting us this one, hmm? I promise, we won't be favoured again. ^^ That's almost dead certain. Unless it has something to do with the current economy then oh well. I suppose it'll soon be all about China exclusives in that case. xD
Oh come ON Nintendo of America!
I have bought pretty much every good "alternative" wii game that's out, with the exception of the Conduit games and Madworld. Practically all my wii games are alternative!
What more must I do?!

Wow, that is stupid. They are localizing the games to English, but won't put it out in America. You don't even need to do any major changes to localize it to American english. Hell, don't bother because we are completely capable of understanding British English (wow... that's weird to see typed out... British English.....).
Now that you've said that though I can't help but take some kind of grim pleasure in knowing that when these games come out in Europe it'll just go back to being screwed with every other game.Daystar Clarion said:
On topic though, there seem to be more and more days where I wake up and am glad that my Wii got stolen. I wonder if the guy who did it is trying to find me so he can give it back. :\
Wow lots of hate over America getting games faster then Europe, you're hate is mislead since it's the publishers that deserve your vile and not the American Fanbase. It's just easier for publishers to make returns on investments when it comes to bringing over a game to America, Europe is a shaky market and thus get games later, but due to the economic downturn and the falling dollar its economically sound to release a game in Europe instead of America (or at least in Nintendo's eyes).
So if you don't like America getting games faster grow your local fanbase, start gaming conventions, or just start your own publishing company and bring over games. Your jealously over the American game market is about as useful as the last two world wars you guys started.

I always hated region locks, I have no idea how it helps publishers because guess what a sale is a sale it doesn't matter where it gets sold. Also why is Nintendo waiting to see how it is going to sell, hasn't America already put in enough preorders on Amazon to cover the cost of importing.
Well, my Wii is well past warranty, so I don't have any qualms about putting on the Homebrew Channel (which I have already done in preparation). Either way, my copy of the game is legitimately obtained, and if NoA wants to release it over here, I'll probably buy it. Voting with my dollars, as it were.
And we North Americans WILL be coming for you if we don't get these games.Marshall Honorof said:
This is not a huge surprise, though. We didn't get Terranigma (Which one could argue was among the finest SNES games ever made. Seriously, if you liked Illusion of Gaia, you owe it to yourself to finish the Soul Blazer trilogy) over here either.
So glad I'm your enemy in all this, instead of the companies who decided that one market share is more important then others, or baring that and import laws and such that might delay your games. Course I do love all the hate people give to those that are lucky to get a chance at buying something before others instead of the forces that cause it. So thank you random Joe from across the sea, love ya too mate and hope you enjoy the games, that way if I and all the others in the state don't, at least someone will.Josh12345 said:
Operation Rainfall shouldn't be commended, it should be pointed and laughed at. Their plan to convince Nintendo to release these games in the US is to buy Final Fantasy. You know what they say: There's no better way to show Nintendo you support them by giving Square Enix money.
...Waaaaaaait a minute...

Oh shut it already. You're acting like it was North American gamers who denied you the games you wanted. Go hate on whatever publishers stiffed you instead of keeping up this obnoxious "America sucks" meme.Daystar Clarion said:
No it doesn't. I see Europe getting special editions that other regions don't get with awesome stuff in them and games before other regions all the time. Just because you don't pay enough attention to game releases doesn't mean it's rare that Europe gets a better deal.Vyress said:
Still waiting on Mother 1 and 2, Dragon Quest 1-3 & 7, all the previous Xeno games, Atlus' entire repertoire up to about 2005 (and, indeed, most of it afterwards), Jeanne d'Arc, and that one Tales Of game that was released worldwide a few years ago but not even the fans acknowledged for whatever reason.BoredRolePlayer said:
Then again, I'm pretty sure only a few of those are actually worth my time.
I see it this way if you are an american and you actually buy more games of their's than Europe and Japan combined if I remember right and they don't realize the games in your country, hit where it hurts, don't buy their stuff, stop giving a company money who obviously does not like you, seeing them falter and I bet you will get those games.In the end they want money so basically hit them where it hurts, their wallet
I'm ashamed to even be on this forum with some of you. This horrible attitude of "yay, finally other fellow games get screwed" is no better that the pettiest of console wars.
