Just bring all those japanese games to the west and i will be fine with whatever. Especially pressure SEGA to get off their rear ends and work on phantasy star.

That phantasy star online 2 could have saved the vita.


That's the most depressing thing about all this.  Sony in the west will happily acknowledge the device as an indie machine or a kids machine, but won't do anything to promote the work that NISA/XSEED/IFI/Aksys are doing; or even their own localization work (i.e. Freedom Wars; Oreshika).

Japanese gaems in the west might not be as big as they used to be, but they're still worth at least mentioning.

Yeah it was depressing to see games like Sword Arts Online released without any word from sony. There is potential for Japanese imports to provide the system with a decent audience or at least cling onto a 30K plus baseline, but they need to back the titles somewhat. Especially when western press is mostly ignoring the games in terms of reviews etc.
