Yeah Nintendo definitely missed an opportunity to bolster the Wii's last years by not giving proper localized releases to not only the Rainfall trio but also Fatal Frame 2 Wii Edition; I feel like if all 4 had gotten well advertised global releases in 2011-2012 the Wii would be better remembered. They really dropped the ball after a phenomenal first four years.

That was Reggie's doing, we in europe got these games localized. That time was the only time as a european gamer we didn't got the short end of the stick. Monolith's game prior to Xenpobla, Disaster: Day of Crisis also came to europe.

I'm a PAL gamer myself so I was one of the fortunate ones, but even here they got basically zero advertising. If they'd come out in NA at the same time as PAL and Nintendo had actively pushed them I really think it would've helped the Wii remain a relevant platform just through seeming less abandoned.

At any rate, Nintendo's gotten a lot better in this regard so it doesn't look like Switch is headed for a similar scenario.
