| Xxain said: No, you cant compare profit expectation from a big company to a small company. Could Valk 3 make profit? probably, but enough for SEGA or other big company to even care? obviously not. I dont even believe White Knight Chronicles made over to America and that's SONY own IP! You gonna hold that against them? |
Yes, but...
It's difficult to understand how it's worth their while to make a whole new game just for Japan to only sell 500k or fewer copies, but they can't afford to slap some English on it to sell another 100k or so outside of Japan. And if it's just a cost of opportunity thing, it's still very frustrating that a lot of these companies (Sega, Square, Namco) would still rather sit on their games and do nothing at all with them than to let smaller, nimbler publishers like Aksys and XSeed have a crack at localizing them.
