(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

Personally, I'd love for anything Sega and Capcom to be localized.

Especially:
Phantasy Star Online 2 (PS4): One of the most requested localizations in general, I see it on nearly every "most wanted localizations"-lists
Yakuza series (Yakuza Ishin (PS4), Yakuza Kiwami (PS4), Yakuza 5 (PS3/PS4) and Yakuza 6 (PS4)): Physical release of all preferred, Yakuza Zero gets a physical release in the West in 2017
Dragon's Dogma Online (PS4): Western RPG fans (and reviewers) loved Dragon's Dogma and Dark Arisen, a physical version of this MMO would be a great localization
Monster Hunter series (Monster Hunter Frontier Online (PS3/PS4) or Monster Hunter Frontier Online 2 (PS4) rumored to be revealed during 2016): Monster Hunter Tri and 4 showed that the franchise is growing in the West

i think we will get Yakuza 6 but Ishin will never come out in the west i think. I also voted for Winning Post 8 2016 :)

they actually mean existing games for PS4 for example, but not translated in english.

Wait, so Play Asia will start translating the games by themselves?

I'd assume they're just going to use DOAX3's sales to say "Hey, look, you can sell x copies with an Asian-English version!"

I'd imagine this is only going to work with games which weren't going to come to the west anyway i.e. fanservice games.

So you think they'll approach some companies saying they will seel their games worldwide on their site if they make their Asian version have English as a selectable language? And use that feedback they are asking for as a way to sell the companies that idea? That would be nice.

Yeah, something like that.  They'll draw up a list of the most requested games and then go to the publisher to say the demand is there and that the Asian-English market is thriving because of xyz (probably citing things like Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 and Moero Chronicle sales).

Yakuza Ishin is a fanservice game?
