| the_dengle said: Actually, the campaign was very small. The official petition managed to accumulate fewer than 8,000 signatures. Compare that to, for instance, the Operation Moonfall campaign to convince Nintendo to remake Majora's Mask for no reason, which has amassed over 50,000 signatures. Also, Xenoblade is the only game Nintendo localized. They did nothing with The Last Story or Pandora's Tower -- those were localized by XSeed, who also claimed Operation Rainfall had no effect on their decision. They didn't really give a direct explanation for their decision regarding Pandora's Tower, but it sounds like the decisive factor was the sales success of The Last Story. I guess both parties are talking out of their asses though, even though it would arguably portray them in a better light to say that they were listening to the fans. |
The signatures were small in number, but people knew about the game, but I guess you're right that the physical form of the Operation was small.
Mayhaps I have simply muddled history in my own head.
