I sincerly lost hope on this getting localized in the West. Well it may release in Europe, but I doubt NoA will localize this.

Since Nintendo bought Monolith Soft, none of their Nintendo published games have made it to the USA. Soma Bringer never made it over and neither did Disaster Day of Crisis.

NoA  doesn't seem to be keen of localizing such games. They haven't localized games like Zangeki No Reginleiv, Trace Memory R, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Fatal Frame 4, Captain Rainbow, Takt of Magic, Kensax, etc.

Niche or niche-core games don't have a chance here with NoA. NoE is more open to this kind of games, so it might have a chance of getting released there. Even when people bring up that Nintendo has registered Xenoblade in the US (albeit with the name Monado) those kinds of things happen all the time. Just remember that Disaster DoC was announced during E3 in the USA and even had American English voice overs, yet the game never saw the daylight here.

The Last Story might have bigger chances of getting localized, but I wouldn't be surprised if they passed up on that one too. Japan never misses on any games, go figure.

Yeah but Disaster was shown before the Wii released. Seems logical to just show all the games it had coming, but in 2009 when this game was shown, not much point in showing the game during E3 time if it wasn't coming over. Plus this is a much bigger project than Disaster anyway...

What's the difference with Disaster and this one? Both shown at E3 (with Disaster being at the main conference if I'm not mistaken, while Monado was unveiled with a small clip hurs after the conference and online), both from Monolith. The logical conclusion is that this game won't be coming over.

Remember how you also told me that Zangeki was supposed to be coming over since it was a Motion Plus game with online multiplayer which is big for the West, yet it didn't ever come. Plus this game is much more Japanese oriented than Disaster, and chances are it stays there, and for that I fucking hate NoA.
