And it only sold 10% of that in Japan, which is all the more reason why they should localize these games immediately after they release in Japan.

 

They are losing a ton of sales leaving it region-locked.

But they ARE localizing all these games.

I know, but why are they complaining then? It hasn't released in every territory so how they complain of sales when they aren't.....for sale?

 

And besides, it is taking 5 months for Arc Rise Fantasia to get to America. The normal localization process takes much longer,or about that much time, but if they needed the games to succeed so bad, they would've made it happen sooner.

LOL, for some reason after reading the OP i suddenly heard Sho Khan in the background saying:

"THAT IS PATHETIC"

But seriously at the end of the day them have only them selves to blame.

They need to make their own version of Wii Fit if they want profit. The Wii is mainly owned by non-gamers, so of course I don't expect certain games to do well on the Wii.

The post goes on to say that the company's games that sell are really selling well despite the current market, remarking that the low numbers for those underperforming releases could be due to Marvelous' own failings in promoting them.

Which of their company's games are selling well in Japan???

Really, is there any HD-only gamer that would buy their games?

So why don't you buy the Wii then?

There are at least 5 titles you want, and of course I don't believe there is none other.
