@Adamant:
Maybe a lack of advertising.

I always find it weird how it seems that some titles that do amazing in Japan and still are amazing in America usually have barely any copies made in America. Just look at Panzer Dragoon Saga, probulay one of the best RPGs of all time, and yet it had only about 20,000 copies made for the West (somewhere around that amount). The result?
The game goes for more than $200 on eBay, USED, and it's price continues to get higher.

^Agreed.
Majora's Mask is still my favorite game ever, and I haven't been able to play it recently since I sold my N64 earlier (most the games I had for it were on the VC and I needed to lower my number of systems).

Re: EarthBound

@Above, the game has already been said that there are some major copyright laws.

And the ESRB said that they only kept the rating because they're not required to remove it.

It's not a rumor, people.

Re: Take Five and Double It!

It's that if they're going to give a game a certain rating, they need to explain why it being say a 5 is the reason it isn't a 6.

Example.
OoT has a 10/10, but the review barely talks about anything in the game.

Re: International Karate

This is smart.
They released the first game in America even though the first AND improved second version are in Europe.

So they'll probulay release + in like two weeks, meaning a lot of people including me are gonna basically buy the same game twice.
They make double the profits from some people. XP

Re: USA VC Update: Commodore 64 Launches With Three Games

That's kinda evil and smart of Nintendo on one of the games.
They released IK in America even though they released the better version in Europe.

But since I really want to play the game, I'll get the one that's out right now. Then in probulay two weeks, the + version will come out and I'll want to get that one too.

It's genius.
They'll get twice the profit from the same game concept. XD

Re: Take Five and Double It!

The thing is, you can't really give a game a 9/10 without saying what gives it a 9 instead of a 10.

And also, some games are getting the wrong ratings IMO.
Street Fighter 2 has four different versions, some which are apparently better than other versions, and they still all have the same rating?
