I guess no one else shares in my outrage. Fine, then. Don't be surprised when the import games stop coming because no one wants to buy completely untranslated games.

Jerks.

Duh. Don't buy it.

If companies realize that untranslated games don't sell they'll realize they have to translate them to make a profit.

It's already too late for that.  It's not as though a disclaimer exists stating that there has been no translation effort whatsoever.  The only other import purchase that I had made was of Sin & Punishment, which did have some translation work done to it.  The thing that I wonder is if this was Nintendo's call or Hudson Soft's?  In either case, I still believe there should be a minimum standard for Japanese import titles being released in North America.

@elprincipe:

Yes, I would almost certainly pay a 4x premium for a fully-translated Seiken Densetsu 3, perhaps even more.  I'm crazy like that.  :)
