Title: Nintendo plans to localise previously Japan-only games for DS
Post by: idolminds on Saturday, November 06, 2010, 10:02:31 AM

Interesting (http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2010-11-05-nintendo-sees-quirky-future-for-ds)

With the 3DS coming soon it doesn't make sense for Nintendo to start new developments for DS, but still needs to keep DS owners happy. Solution? Translate Japan-only games and release those!

Not sure what they are doing for the Japanese market. But screw them, they already got these games!

I know I for one will be waiting in line for Subway Schoolgirl Fondle 4.

Obviously I'm kidding, but isn't there a reason there are Japan-only games?  It's not just that the games didn't get localized.  Japanese culture can be quite unique.

THANK GOD. IT FEELS SO GOOD TO TALK ABOUT THIS NOW. I've been a fan of the subway fondle series since the very first game. It has been such a ground breaking series. Thank god they finally introduced the multitentacle stuff finally in the fourth installment. I hear they are going with a new art direction in the fifth one, so I wonder how that's going to play out.

edit:

OK after reading your entire post, it seems you were joking.

Ha Ha... so was I.  :-[

Ahaha!  Hentai lovers out of the closet.  It's not just for creepy losers anymore.  Or, uh, is it?   :-\
