Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Three Wii games you should be really cautious about. (MH3,Muramasa,Fragile)

Still interested in all 3 (though I likely won't buy Fragile). Been wanting quality (Japanese) 3rd party games on my Wii.

As for Muramasa, I'm glad we're getting original voices with subs. So what if there's no dubs for this one game, I prefer subs and there are tons of games that don't give us the subs option. Give this one to us!

For those curious, it's not a weeabo thing, either (not @valk, but some really do think so). There's no way in hell I'd watch my other favorite foreign movies (like Crouching Tiger / Amelie) dubbed. The original is nearly always superior.

I really like all three games shown here. I would prolly get Muramasa and Fragile for sure, while waiting for reviews for Monster Hunter (haven't played any of the games in its series yet, so I'm not sure if I could get into it).


And about the subtitles thing...it's really a personal choice and taste. I'm desi, so I constantly watch the movies from India with subtitles b/c though I understand hindi/urdu really well and can speak it somewhat, it is still a struggle to understand all of it without the subtitles. Constantly watching the films in subtitles allowed me to get used to it a lot. Plus I watched anime in subs and in dubs...some anime can do the dubs really well, like GTO, and then others can really mess it up like in Naruto...

So I understand why people can prefer dubs...its frustrating to be forced to read a scene and not be able to actually watch it like a normal scene.



Explanation of sig:

I am a Pakistani.....my name is Dan....how hard is that? (Don't ask about the 101...apparantely there are more of me out there....)

Btw, I will get all three of them (even though there won't even be Swedish subtitles :p). I've been waiting for Muramasa and Fragile for so long now that I just can't abandon them even if they get horrible reviews. And MH looks like a good, solid game.

Thanks for the heads, up. Fortunately I don't even consider JRPG to be RPGs at all, but maybe that's because i've been playing PnP RPG for 20 years now.

Monster Hunter, well i'm not sure about the slowness, but I will probably give it a shot. Most importantly is this multiplayer split screen or just online? This game strikes me that I will enjoy multiplayer more than single.

Demon Blade, just not interested in what I thought was a 2d action game.

Fragile, even better now that I know it's not an RPG. All I wanted was an explorable world in abandon ruins with a supernatural element. This however is a must have for me more now than later.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.

Its muramasa for me, and maybe Fragile, MH3 depends on reviews, friends to play with, monthly fee, etc.

its both local split screen and online 4 player co-op.

@flafstaad
MH3 is p2p in Japan. 90% sure it will be free here too.



Fragile is sounding more interesting now that I know it's not your typical run of the mill JRPG. Sometimes I look forward to a game and just enjoy the atmosphere.

Atmosphere. Story. Explore. Fragile.



I'm already planning on getting all three. I knew Muramasa and MH3 weren't RPGs, but I did think Fragile was one.

I'm not interested in Fragile honestly. I can't say it looks the least bit appealing to me, though i would like to give it a shot. I think Arc Rise should've be in it's place though...



How technical is your game?
