Since we are recently being bombarded with them left, right and center. I felt like making a thread about it

Which game(s) would you like to see in english in future one day?

I nominate Yakuza 5, since we'd never see it in english, ever

This

Very Good thread Supa

Undernight In-Birth and J-Star Victory Vs

How could I forget. Thanks Ragna

J-Star Victory Vs would be awesome. But I think due to licensing. That is nearly impossible outside of nippon

thanks, came up with it on a whim

I'd also like to say PuyoPuyo Tetris, it's already easy to play without understanding, but I just wanna know what the characters are saying lol


I'm kinda envious of people who has the patience to learn the language just to understand video games, my brain is like an old dog at the moment

J-Star Victory Vs, if Capcom could localize Tatsunoko vs Cacpom then Namco have no excuses.

Of course. The anime properties are not only owned by different studios, the licensing outside of Japan is likewise owned by various studios.

Completely different to say, Tatsunoko vs Capcom as all the anime properties are actually owned by Tatsunoko in the first place.

Not that I think you are missing anything tbqh. I dont recall what I played of j Stars being that good. But maybe not my cup of tea.

I cant really think any localisations I would want though... hmmm Yakuza 5.

yeah that would be great.

The tatsunoko properties are held by multiple companies in west, hence why everyone was shocked when it got a release. The properties have now revertes back to those companies, so yeah if Capcom could do a western release namco should be able to as well

And like I said in my previous comment, they are all owned by a single company in Japan.

Th reality is that some of the properties from Tstsunoko actually did not have any licensing in English in the first place. Additionally, the game in question used about 10 different properties.

This is a completely different story for J Stars, where all the properties in their anime form are owned by multiple companies in Japan, and by multiple companies in English countries. Additionally, there are more than double the properties to get licensing agreements for.

If Namco pulls it off then that is great. They would have gone through a lot more trouble. and paid a lot more money, than Capcom would have.

Both situations are not exactly similar.

Also J-Star Victory Vs & Yakuza 5!
Considering we did get all the other Yakuzas, we should get 5 as well!

SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI IV...EUROPE...I get very sad every time I think of that game...

i imported a US 3DS and SMTIV. And Yes it's good

Buying more than one of the same system just to play select titles and importing from the states are hoops that are not really worth jumping through if your a student...
