very sad indeed, wasn'ttherea picture of a FF ad in a UK Nintendo magaine withtheWii logo?

Sadly, Tecmo says its up to Nintendo, and only Nintendo to publish it here in NA

sucks, FF already sold well in Japan, better than almost every other FF.

seems Fatal Frame andDisaster will never make it to NA.

Wait a minute. -Nintendo says that it isn't the distributor for this game in North America. -Tecmo says that it isn't up to them, it's up to Nintendo. If anything, this really doesn't confirm anything at all. Nintendo and Tecmo are just playing ping-pong with the rights. I don't know but to me, this isn't a confirmation that this is NEVER coming here.

while yes it isn't a confirmation

the past of NOA not helping nintendo made titles like Disaster doesn't give FF a promising chance at all

Thats more of a confirmation actually, its simple no one wants to take the blame so they volley the blame back and forth but in the end gamers lose out. See this is why people mod systems NOA, I would at least like to get a reason for this move, why they denying the US a solid game.

What qulifies you to judge that they are bad games, in fact every time NOA does something like this a poster such as the person I'm replying are claim that we ain't missing anything by Nintendo not publishing these games in North America. I don't know if they are Nintendobot defenders or just trolls mocking regular Wii gamers. Anyways in the case of FF, I say this is BS, I have enjoyed the series on the Xbox and its a shame that despite its solid history of western releases and a western fanbase from three previous game, Nintendo still decieded to keep it in Japan only. I really wished Tecmo never gave Nintendo the rights to publish this game. It should have came out on the PS360 not so much because of graphics, but because it would have had a better chance of coming out in North America. Well this convinces me more Nintendo will show the same crap come E3 that they did last year. Oh well thank god for third parties because the last Nintendo games I bought for the Wii where MP3:Corruption and BWii, since then it has been nothing but third parties for me, and since they figure real games like Fatal Frame and Disater Day of Crisis aren't there thing, then I will stick to third party games on Wii only.

FF4 is actually considered a good game by many people.

It's not like Nintendo cares about quality anyway when they release games like Wii music.

This is why I hate Nintendo as a publisher.

I'm going to have to send NOA an email expressing my want of this game in NA. Anyone else going to join the bandwagon?

This is probably for the best anyway. Just from what I read they didn't look so great. Not the best controls and whatnot.

It really isn't enough to get me upset.

As stated earlier, I seriously don't know why people get their hopes up over Japanese games. It's much better to never expect them to come outside Japan. That way, at least if it does come over, you'll have forgotten about it and be really shocked to see it in the store.

Refresher course on my thoughts about japanese games. Unless you import or jailbreak your system.

Reggie if he wasn't President of Nintendo of America we would be getting both of those games. Because Nintendo of America was perfect before Reggie got promoted.
