Well, after four generations of us Europeans being screwed over out of entire games from Square, it hardly seems a big deal for anyone to miss out on a few C.Es....

Be thankful you never had to go through what PAL users had to go through during the SNES days.


Even though I wasn't gaming during the 4th gen, I can imagine how bad it was for JRPG lovers like myself.  No Chrono Trigger, o Final Fantasy IV-VI, no Super Mario RPG, no Ogre Battle MotBQ, no Seiken Densetsu 3, no Dragon Quest V and VI, no Fire Emblem, no Tactics Ogre, no Tales of Phantasia, etc.  I guess we got Terranigma, which provides a little bit of comfort at least.

It's not like the 5th gen was much better either given the popularity of Pokemon and to a lesser degree FFVII: No DQVII, no Xenogears, no Tales of Destiny or Eternia/Destiny II, no Ogre Battle 64, no Arc the Lad I-III, no Chrono Cross, no Chrono Trigger, Tactics Ogre, Tales of Phantasia or Ogre Battle MotBQ ports, no Valkyrie Profile, etc.

I'm just happy that this gen that the likes of FFXIII, Xenoblade Chronicles, DQIX, etc all saw releases here.  Sure I'm a little bit annoyed that the likes of Soma Bringer don't make it, but the current situation is far preferable to those mentioned above.

 

As a European, i totally disagree with the OP, because of everything MrT-Tar has said. okay its a bit unfair Sqaure Enix arnt giving American's the CE. but its not like it was in Europe, where even if you got these games they were regionally locked anyway.

but i think that Sqaure might have an alternative agenda in this case. maybe its to do with the exchange rate or something like that, but it dosent make sense why they wouldnt release the CE in US. theres probabily more demand there for a CE than Europe.

but its not like theres no way of getting this, Wagram and others could just import the UK version.

Read my above post >.>

Unless I am from the U.K. I can't get what I want. Here's hoping I get to spend about 100 dollars on an over priced steel case on eBay!
