@Soriku: Why has all your optimism about all these games making it here faded away so suddenly? You've argued with anyone who believed that neither Xenoblade, The Last Story nor ToG were ever gonna make it here, even argued with me that Zangeki had chances to get localized. I guess you will be more cautious next time, as the signs about them not coming were alarmingly obvious,

Xenoblade, TLS, and ToG are making it out to the West. In Xenoblade and TLS's case, maybe not the US unless OP Rainfall pulls through but otherwise they're making it out outside of Japan. I'm pretty sure you expected them to not make it out of Japan, period.

Would have been easier to just say - "We don't want to make Wii games"

Probably would have got less abuse too. Seriously. If Nintendo don't even want to offer the Wii meaningful support, then why should 3rd parties take the risks?

If you want JRPGs (Or RPGs in general), go buy a PS3 and/or a 360.

Because third parties aren't supposed to follow the example of first parties; they're wholly independent. And at least NoE is actually delivering. It's not like ToG Wii is coming to Europe. I think i'll just change the thread title to the West.

You always argued that they will be coming to the Wii, yet you won't be able to play them unless you hack your Wii and/or buy a PS3. Now don't change what you said please.
