You're forgetting that it's been 10 months. Considering we know very well that Mother 3, as in the game itself, is complete, I severely doubt it'd take 10 months to translate. Especially considering the easy dialogue in it (all hiragana). I know japanese myself, and I can tell you that it would never take that long. Also, you forget that Mother is far from a major franchise. A lot of people would probably react "What's this?"

 

 

Don't quote me on this...

 

But I'm pretty sure I read an interview in these last couple of days (might have been the reggie one), with a question regarding Mother 3. And a reposnse of "We're listening to what our fans are saying." Now, whether those two go together... I can't remember. But the outcry for it pretty huge, and reggie himself said he gets asked about it in every interview he makes.

 

I'm not saying "Mother 3 will never make it outside Japan", I'm saying "It would never take 10 months to translate". If they begun translating it in January, you can bet your ass it'd have been announced by now. Regardless of if Mother 3 is being localized as we speak or not, it's virtually unthinkable that that situation connects to this one.
