While I'm happy it's coming out you don't think they could have told us a bit earlier than 2 days before the EU launch?

Those of us who've already ordered copies from overseas are just getting kicked in the balls because Nintendo loves shitting on their customers like this.

Most of Nintendo's (or SONY's or Microsoft's) customers don't order games from overseas, or even know anything about what games are even released in other regions. I consider myself a pretty seasoned gamer and I don't know anything about The Last Story. I'm sure those who game less than me are even less knowledgeable of it.

I will agree with the post above...while I already own the Japanese version, you need to remember that casual gamers far outnumber hardcore gamers now, and you would probably fall in a very small percentile of people who pre-ordered an import copy. I wouldn't say this is nintendo shitting on its fans. I'm just surprised it won't be out until AFTER the WII-U launch..or the supposed launch anyways.

Summer 2012, that's only four months away. I don't think the Wii U is launching until Fall at the earliest given the wide open window Nintendo cited in their last conference.

This is good news, another game on my "pick-up" list. I doubt it but I hope we get a special edition similar to what the european have, that steel book artwork is pretty nice.

Well I have my PAL LS LE shipping on Friday, I imported XB and will be getting the US version. I just pre ordered Pandoras Tower PAL and will get the US version of TLS

Very glad that I waited. Nintendo is really taking care of its fans with this one.

Awesome looks like Operation Rainfall was a great success Now if only they would localize Fatal Frame IV......

Not Nintendo. Xseed.

Actually, Reggie said Xseed is their publishing partner. So, I think they're working together to release TLS over here.

He probably just said that to make it look like it was Nintendo that did a lot of the work, I bet the only association Nintendo has with it is the licensing. Don't quote me on that though, it's just a theory with no backing Thanks Xseed for exceeding our expectations and picking up some slack

Truth. XSEED is a phenomenal company and I doubt Nintendo even cares about this section of their fanbase anymore.


I know I may sound really bitter in that earlier post, but all the jerking around that Nintendo has been doing with these really sought after releases (at least to me and other people who enjoy JRPGs) makes me very wary of purchasing the Wii U at all.

I've more to say buy I don't think I can put them into words eloquently enough without coming off as a flaming internet retard.*
