I'm surprised they didn't say this about Monster Hunter. According to PETA, grabbing a leaf that turns into a tanooki suit is terrible, but killing something, carving it with a knife, turning it into armor, and then wearing it everytime you to kill more things? That's okay with us!
I can't believe the guys that don't want to buy this game cuz there's no online multiplayer. I'd rather play with people I know. I'd also like to be able to play multiplayer missions later on so my copy isn't worthless because the servers got shut down. Isn't that a good thing? All this hatred for games without online is stereotyping us western gamers. That's why they have so much trouble localizing these games. Because we're apparently more interested in FPS's and casual party games!
How about giving customers a reason to want to use their Nintendo console? By that I mean supporting Wii before it's canned and getting better games on eshop. I'd sure love to try out those VC games Japan has that we don't and those retail releases too. Even Europe is getting more stuff than us! I'm glad for them but what about the rest of us?
Can we have NOJ's releases instead? I'm sick of suffering under NOA's tyranny of stupidity as they let these games stay overseas and give us crap instead
A GAME and a SIM ae two different things that Nintendo keeps trying to combine in order to attract mainstream audiences. Tell me Iwata, what happened to you guys' plan to bring back the hardcore group? Not sure how Wii U is gonna be successful if Nintendo's only releasing a few games that are mostly shovelware right before its release :/
Btw @1 Why not combine Big Boob Acadamy with nintendosaurs? Just don't combine the humans in the game with dinosaurs...0_0
Looks an awful lot like Rendering Ranger R2 another game made by Manfred Tranz, creator of the Turrican series, for the Super Famicom. Shame that game never got released over here since it's an awesome game that would've done amazing over here even though it's an American made game. O_o
Edit: I mean it's an American made game that would've done awesome over here if it were released domestically and not produced in the thousands in Japan.
@Link79 Rondo of Blood was Included with Symphony of The Night in Dracula X Chronicles for the PSP. It also includes a remade version of Rondo and it's crappy hidden game for added laughs.
I don't get why you guys are freaking out about this. I don't have to worry about getting lag, crappy players, hacks, logging on to servers, or having a much shorter game when the servers close. I'll have and can do everything I could when I first played through the game at any time. I do have to say, Capcom better localize this and put in all the stuff from MHP3rd. We've waited LONG ENOUGH
EDIT: btw, All these comments saying you guys won't buy it if it has no online just reassures Japan that us silly westerners are more comfortable playing our ridiculous games instead of what they're trying to sell us. Monster Hunter never had online for it's portable installments(all of which were on systems with online capabilities) and it's never hurt its sales before. For those who were concerned about online, there was XLink Kai
I still have my cash set aside for MHP3rd from last year since they decided NOT to sell the best selling Monster Hunter game to date overseas. Don't screw me over again CAPCOM! I will not be denied more Monster Hunter games dammit!
@Jackdd4 I honestly don't get why all these Japanese companies are doing that bullcrap. There's a huge fanbase for these games over here. They should ignore all the stupid "Come on bro! COD pwnz all, n00bs!" "gamers" and remember that some of us silly westerners actually like the stuff they make.
Chrono Trigger is my all time favorite game although Macross: Scrambled Valkyrie, R-Type 3, and Hagane were some of the best made for the SNES BESIDES Castlevania, Mario, Zelda, and Metroid.
@Hardy83 I agree. Making region specific games and movies is the stupidest thing humanity has ever thought of. Having idiots deciding what we silly Americans, Europeans, or Australians can play makes it worse. *cough Namco Japan *cough God Eater DLC We should have to decide what WE want, not what they think is going to sell over here!
@MasterGraveheart: There's only one swear word to describe this situation. And that word...is...(bleep)!!! Oh yeah, IT'S THAT BAD! Seriously, this is just as bad as D3 being unable to translate the God Eater Burst DLC!
Just what the Wii needs, not hardcore games that the fans demanded, but another minigame collection. To quote kozinaa from IGN, "This game needs a segment in which the gremlins destroy the game's coding, and Hulk Hogan proceeds to save the day in a God of War-style brawler."
I remember when I first heard of this game, I nearly crapped myself because I thaught it was a sequel to Chrono Trigger. Then I noticed D3 was publishing and thaught "WTF? Doesn't Square make these games?" right before I found out 3 seconds later that it was a shooter that had nothing to do with CT. The wait continues...;/
"just a dreamcast"? remember the last time the president of a video game company denied US gamers JRPGs before a new system with a screen in its controller came out...
i just hope nintendo realizes that sports games are horrible and lets microsoft and sony get stuck with the million "Madden" "NBA 20--" and "MLB ----" games. seriously, none of those games are good and they are worthless after a week if someone buys one, hates it, and goes to get their money back. every game store that i sells retro games that i have been to are always clogged with sports games that suck. i just hope ea realizes this and tries to come up with some GOOD and ORIGINAL titles instead of making another crappy basketball game every month!
@22 They NEED to make a new Castlevania, but more than anything, they need to make it a difficult, sidescrolling action platformer that is STAGE BASED. I am sick and tired of hearing about a new Castlevania only to be dissapointed that it's anther "metroidvania" game. Don't get me wrong, these games were awesome, but doing the exact same thing over and over again isn't something Konami should be doing with one of its best franchises. Even worse is making all of the characters look like emos from an anime when they were designed to be more realistic(remember Grant in Judgement?) A staged based reboot will bring tons of gamers to the Wii U. Just add multiplayer, DLC, and a very long campaign mode and it's all good!
Wii U sounds like a half assed Wii ripoff(remember the Vii?) I say they they should get SEGA back in the hardware game with them and call it the Super Mega Ultra SG-1000 Nintendo Dream Entertainment Blast Processor System 64 or SMUSG1000NDEBPS64 but before that they should get all the Operation Rainfall games released here and stop their crappy localization policies
I say Operation Rainfall shouldn't be just for Xenoblade, Pandora's Tower, and Last Story, it should be a movement to get developers to stop screwing us over with region lockouts and (insert continent)-only games. No one should be denied the chance to play an awesome game just cuz of where they live and if there is little interest in whatever game it is, just release it in limited numbers to make sure they lose as little money as possible.
Nintendo has become the new Bernie Stolar > Now that they don't want us to have the GOOD games WE want, how the hell do they expect to make us buy their next console/money printer? There is no point in buying a console if the company that makes it constantly starves us good games and gives us the shaft with a bunch of kiddy "casual"abominations. It's time for Plan B, Operation Thunderclap!!!
bro2dragons, you deserve a medal for putting that up XD
but seriously, if we knew about all these awesome Japan-only games back then then, we should have done this YEARS AGO!!! Far East of Eden, Mother, Terranigma, Macross Scrambled Valkyrie, Spriggan, Radiant Silvergun, Der Langrisser, Final Fantasy 2,3, and 5(original), Alien Soldier, Monster Hunter 2, Frontier, and Freedom 3, Sakura Wars, Super Robot Taisen, Fire Emblem, Front Mission, Castlevania Rondo of Blood, and Symphony of the Night(Saturn) all stayed in Japan without anyone doing anything about it!!! Let's join together nad stop this from ever happening again and bring hose awesome games to our shores!!!!
Because of course Nintendo wants to have good games on their systems, that's why awesome games like this are denied and crappy games get green lit instead. Seriously, who the hell is the idiot that doesn't think us Americans would like to try these games out? It better not be Bernie Stolar...
