Wii: Fragile

DS: Soma Bringer



Around the Network

USA is yet to see a Monolith Soft game after Nintendo acquired them. Why did they even acquire them if we can't play their games here?

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

For me, it is Disaster: Day of Crisis.

Disaster:DoC

Fatal Frame 4

Those two for sure.

Because I love funky unusual games, I'd probably buy Captain Rainbow and my son would love Tatsunoko vs Capcom but it's highly unlikely either will ever leave Japan.



 

Fragile so far, not sure if Fatal Frame IV will or won't be released since I heard no release date has been announced.

Actually, I think the baten kaitos games came to NA..

 



Baten Kaitos was released before they acquired them.

I'll add Sky Crawlers to the heap.

Fragile, Kizuna, Monster Hunter 3...

Fragile is a real must, love the art style and the atmosphere of the game, don't care if the gameplay isn't top notch, it's the kind of game i know i'll like... it wasn't a real success in Japan, i hope Namco-Bandai will give the game its chance in the West...

Kizuna, same thing, great art style, a little bit too dark maybe, but can't wait to be in front of some of these bosses... it may suck, who knows, but if it's great, it would be really, really nice to play it...

Monster Hunter 3 looks amazing, and it will be the real first big-budget Wii game in Japan by a 3rd party... Capcom can't mess with their millions of japanese fans, so the game should be excellent... i just hope they will think "international" on this one...

Otherwise, i was very happy to hear about a Muramasa release in PAL territory... ok, it's an april 2010 release, but at least, it's comin'... let's stay positive... :)

Same thing for Little King's Story, btw: it could be on some of your lists, guys... and you'd feel even more pissed...

So enjoy when awesome "niche" games are actually comin'... better thing is to play these little jewels, or to rant all over the net because of the other ones you'll miss?

Yeah, make the good choice... ;)
