Those interested in importing the game may contact me once the game is out. I'm willing to send a few copies out to you guys free of profit. There is however a chance the back cover and booklet will be in Dutch. Some games here come with English covers and manuals, others not. I'll let you guys know once the game is out... :wink:

Yeah, I guess we have it pretty good over here. But us spoiled Americans deserve to have these games!

wtf dude, PUT ME DOWN ON THAT LIST! :D

But yeah. I'll probably look into getting a Wii again when this comes out, soft mod it (sounds easy from the little bit I was reading into yesterday), and get this then also get The Last Story and play probably the two best games ever on the Wii.

Based on the last few years, I'm definitely not purchasing a WII U. And if Megaman Legends 3 DOES see the light of day, I will buy the game to support Capcom and borrow my friends 3DS. Sony has always been consistent for me ever since I got my first Playstation in 1996! I'm staying loyal in the future. The new xbox better be something special because the exclusives are barely keeping me interested, LARGELY thanks to the Gears of War trilogy!

Also, Fuck Halo, I said it :P

The fourth missing game in the U.S. is Fatal Frame wii edition. Nnintendo of North America are lazy enough to not port game. disaster day crisis and Captain Rainbow wont come to US. Of course homebrew gamers make the effort to port them.

Small rumors going around that they'd HD Xenoblade for the Wii U, but yeah I highly doubt that.

Should have been on the PS3/360 anyways. Fuck Nintendo for buying Monolith Soft.

Wait, I get why the OP thinks not getting the "operation rainfall" games is bad, but what's bad about the Wii U announcement?

Hey, me too--consistently deceptive, evil, and disappointing! Nintendo isn't the devil, and Sony isn't anybody's savior. They're both just companies out to make a buck, and either one of them will treat you great or screw you over with equal enthusiasm, depending on which makes them richer at that moment. Mostly who they want to screw over is each other. I'm glad your experience with Sony has been better than mine, but you should try to get some perspective.

Why should it have?

@flamepanther
The OP has been complaining about the Wii U since E3. I don't care to hear his just not interested responses again and how Sony is the best and the Sony Vita is awesome. All that would happen is you guys would keep qouting each other and arguing back and forth just like the Capcom thread. On a side note why did you disappear for 4 months?

I unexpectedly lost my job in a company upheaval and have had a lot of much more important things to do with my time until recently.

They shouldn't, but it still saddens me.
I'm always fascinated when I see people who acknowledge that the majority of corporations absolutely don't give a shit about anything but the dollar, and almost seem to use it as a defense for companies when they switch over to the proverbial dark side. My philosophy in life is (pardon the cheese): "Don't let them black your heart; glow in the dark." If the standard is shit, then rise above the standard, always. There's no excuse for the way Nintendo's handled this situation, and the fact that other corporations' actions have been inexcusable is of no consolation. No one should behave this way, and no one should be encouraging such inconsiderate behavior by granting them the money they thirst for -- if a person in your daily life treated you this way, you wouldn't buy them a candy bar in response. If you keep lowering your standards for how you should be treated as a customer, things will never get better.
