The publisher appreciates the enthusiasm, but still isn't swayed

    Not a big fan of JRPGS myself but if I was this would be pretty frustrating. I would have probably just resort to importing at this point.

    Well this sucks. How hard can it be to localize an already translated game? Not only does this annoy me, it also reminded me to be angry that Earthbound wasn't released on the virtual console, and MOTHER 3 still hasn't be legally localized.

    I don't get Nintendo on this decision at all. They clearly need to get back more older hardcore gamers, and they have a perfect opportunity to make nice. Even if there was no way for them to be profitable in this endeavor (and I refuse to believe this is the case) just the goodwill alone would be worth it. Not just for the Wii and Nintendo, but for JRPGs in general. So many Japanese developers have whined and moaned about western audiences not appreciating JRPGs, but maybe that's because they've created so many shit ones this generation. They finally have some great ones, and they refuse to bring them over. Seriously, have there even been ANY good Wii JRPGs that have underperformed in the US? I can't even think of an example. Nintendo made so much money this generation. It's sad to see them refuse to give fans even this little thing.

    Wow Nintendo...Classy. Now Nintendo, in six months when these games are pirated out the ass, you will be the only one to blame. With a digital world, why do we even have region locks on games and movies. World wide release + Digital download is the future. Well, should be the future.
