I got myself that very same 2DS, and I don't regret it (I have a 3DS XL, too).

Full price and digital only? Thank you but no thanks.

I played the demo, didnt like it a single bit. Lame conversations, I don't like the gameplay, and I find this idea of "making children" completely ridiculous. Mind you, I am a girl, the hubby has Senran Kagura which I like too. Not mentioning that Conception does not even have a retail version, I'll definitely pass.

@ULTRA-64
Sadly I must admit that the situation is the same in my place (I live in country not far away from yours)

@Noelemahc
Yup, They do not give a damn about Europe

If "The West" would mean that the game will be released in Europe as well, I will be happy. Otherwise, it's just gonna be the same mess we got with Rune Factory 4. Meh.

To think that games like this actually gets physical release, it simply baffles me. Still hoping in vain for Shin Megami Tensei 4 EU release.... :/
I have Cut the rope on my tablet. It is a good game, but I don't see the point of getting it on a 3DS. I'll just pass.

I've never had the chance to play the original games, so I am really looking forward to this! I just hope they will not change the original story.

OMG OMG! Considering I could never play the original Ruby and Sapphire games, this looks interesting!!!!!

Is that the thing where you need to buy figurines to play the game?

@Gelantious I really wish they would do that

Would be nice if someome told XSEED we want that game in EU too!

I hope we will get Harvest Moon Connecting New Worlds localized very soon... Or Rune Factory 4 (we need a miracle for that one ^^)

Original box art all the way. I am sick and tired of silly localization decision....

I really hope hope hope hope hope hope hope this game will come to Europe region too... Le Sight....

This is awesome !!!

I want to be there sooooo bad T_T

The fact that bad games such as those get quickly released, while other games such as Fantasy Life or SMTIV never get a chance is something that baffles me.

Finally some good news.

I just hope they will not ruin the game in the localization process by removing all the Japanese particularities of the game. It is what makes this game so charming.

@KittenKoder: sadly, yes.

Iwata Satoru-san:

All I ask you is to get rid of region lock on retail games.

Please let us be our own judge, and deal with cultural differences. Please flood our local market with different console gaming universes, so that the people here can broaden up their gaming experience, and increase Nintendo profits.

Well, good to know they are working on it

Hmm.. correct me if I am wrong, but aren't the map "pokeballs" locations read as "Pokemon center" (the location between route 4 and route 5 does indeed look like one).
Does it means that those are safe points where to save the game? (I think I'll avoid saving in Lumiose city until the bug is fixed ^^)

@ultrraichu. I must admit you have a point, there. I guess "better localization" rhymes with "more money". Otherwise how to explain that Pokemon X/Y gets a worldwide release with 7 languages in 1 cart formula, while other games don't? I am really curious about this.

@Jazzer94: hope so, but I am losing hope

Funny to see how some games can get a worldwide release, and include 7 languages, even Japanese. Case in point: Pokemon X/Y:

This said, I wish Nintendo will get rid of region lock, as it seems that they cannot do the same for other games (SMTIV, forever TBA in Europe for example).

It would also allow me to play games that will never be localized (Tomodachi collection, Fantasy life, Japan only as I type this).

Any chance that they would bring it on the 3DS eshop? I'd shed the 9.99 EUR for it immediately! ^^

I just grabbed the cart version today, can't wait to play it!

@paniccoffee

I second that.

Region lock is fine by me, provided we get the games released in US and EU. — Which is not the case now.

Edit: I quote Damien McFerran: "The vast majority of gamers who plough their cash into the global interactive entertainment industry would never even consider buying a game from outside of their respective territory. "

Hmm, this is not the impression I get when I see people's comments on games such as "Tomodachi collection", "Fantasy Life", or Shin Megami Tensei IV (TBA forever in EU region)...

Edit2: @Kirk: I agree 100%

I quote: "There are many different regions around the world, and each region has its own cultural acceptance and legal restrictions, as well as different age ratings."

Correct me if I am wrong, but the DS games have never been region locked? Did the different regions, legal restrictions and cultural acceptance changed that much over a 2/3 years span?

Hey Reggie, European gamers would like to visit your AC/NL house too!

NO. Period.

As long as they do not remove the original free Streetpass games (puzzle quest, find Mii), it's fine by me. By the way, it seems that the bug has been fixed? (at least my system did not crash yet)

Whatever it is, if it can help Streetpasses, it's fine by me. I live in a medium city in Europe, and I can tell myself lucky if I get 1 streetpass a day. Average is 2 streetpasses per week, when in luck. This said, I noticed more streetpasses those last few months, hope the trend will last

@Cesco I fully agree! I, too, want to see Tomodachi collection and Fantasy Life published here in Europe.

I desperately hope someone at Nintendo would take notice of the positive feedback, and willingness to give our Euros in those games
edit: I also hope to see Prof. Layton vs Ace attorney, Shin Megami Tensei IV

Got it! Finally!

Same here, four days to go!

Yet another mama game? Thank you, but no, thanks

I will buy digital when Nintendo assures me that I can re-download the games I bought, if I were to lose my unit. So far, I prefer to own the games on a cartridge that can be played on all the 3DS units we have in our family. This said, I would not mind being given access to the Nintendo Japanese e-store, that would allow me to buy games that are not currently available in my region.

If only this game would be localized... All I want is a translation, I can learn about the Japanese cultural elements by myself... I wish Nintendo would listen to its players' feedback and give the game a chance.

Edit: I am actually considering importing it. (And try and improve my Japanese in order to play it.)
