You're missing the point. We are NOT Europe. So, the hypothetical situation does not make sense. |
No you've missed the point, Europeans have been dealing with this for decades we've missed more gems then anything so 3 games should they not make it over to the US seems pretty minimal to us over here as you could make a top 50 of games not released for us. Fact is the market has changed and US has been positioned in a situation to what Europe was in back in those days whether you're not in Europe is irrelevant as your situation is very similar, people here are talking about "I thought they're aiming for the core" and all that non sense well guess what they are just that core doesn't necessarily mean niche.
Reggie and NOA right now think of core as the COD:MW's, Arkham's, RE's and the GTA's, the 3 games you desire qualify as core games yes but the problem is it comes down to numbers as far as Reggie and NOA are concerned you all can talk about it being a nice gesture just to release it and what not but the reason people keep bringing up numbers is because minimal sales doesn't tell a company COO that the core are being satisfied that's how it goes. NOE only released the game because they want to capture the MH3 following over here as it's a cult following but very dedicated so all 3 games are being marketed to them, Xenoblade did better then what NOE expected but this was because NOE brought in low shipments people can't find copies because of it.
