That's great news.

But they need to do this with the Wii too. They can start by bringing Zangeki no Reginliev to the West.

Chibi Robo FTW!

Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.

Didn't they do this with the GBA when the DS was coming into the market? I remember Warioware and Fire Emblem Sacred Stones got released in 2005.

Makes you wonder what Japan-only Wii games will come west in 2012 or so...

To be fair, Fatal Frame 4 was plagued with glitches. Maybe it'll come in due time.

Seems like Nintendo is potentially recognizing a quantity problem in releases of their titles and maybe that is what is driving them to localize these games. No issue here with me, but seems like Nintendo is wanting to up the amount of software they sell with little risk to how much they spend. Might start seeing that with Wii, and potentially even seeing it with them and 3rd parties. Actually have already seen a few of those. I'm all for it.
