Now it seems like our slacks will be staying firmly buttoned. While Nintendo published the Wii-exclusive in Japan, the company has no intention of making a repeat performance stateside with Nintendo boss Reggie Fils-Aime telling MTV, "We are not the publisher of that title in the Americas."

BOO! >:(
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

that makes no sense Reggie >:(....Nintendo can publish Fire Emblem but not Fatal Frame IV? what is wrong with you >_<
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

What, this was one of the games that I was looking forward too. And since Wii is stupidely region locked, I cant even import it! ZOMG this was the worst news of the day!

No Fatal Frame for Europe either :(
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

This is even more stupid!!! What is Nintendo thinking???? Honestly this is the worst move by Nintendo yet.
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

Nintendo's been making a lot of bad moves lately. I wonder why?

Lol I expected that.


Another one would be not bringing Day of Crisis over.

that one is at least more possible than Fatal Frame.

"According to Nintendo of America president, Reggie Fils-Aime, Disaster will not be released in the North America until they determine how well it sells in Europe.[16] IGN lists a possible release sometime in 2009"

can't say it doesn't bother me but just like Sega's horrible move (haruhi suzumiya) i guess i'll just have to wait, see and make a petition XD... as you stated before companies have their reasons to do this sort of thing, anyway....
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

There have been more bad moves

No Disaster Day of Crisis
Japan already has more DSi Colors than us
Were missing out on several Wii Channels
Wheres Super Smash Bros N64?

something similar to that can be said of every other company/console... all companies must have their reasons to hold back these DLC games and these colors and stuff like that.

Where's Majora's Mask? Europe has it first lol

See, the problem is that Nintendo is scattering stuff across regions, and there is no way to access the,. If everything was disc based media and the Wii were region locked then I would gladly import all my games, lol. But in this current predicament, were forced to play our American Wiis

Don't forget E3. That was another terrible move.

Ah, there's another flaw. Everything's region locked.
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

PS3 and PSP owners can thwart the regional content for the PSN, while games are non region encoded (fortunately US and Japan are on the same region for Blu-Rays)
Is Xbox 360 region free too?

No sir. Speaking of region-free. I really need to order Demon's Souls from Playasia.com...the asian version is in full English (voice and text).
 
Re: Fatal Frame IV unlikely to come to America!? BOO!

lol Demon's Soul looked brutally difficulty though I heard the boss fights are kind of epic.

There is a hack for Wii that allows you to play Japanese games on Wii. My friend uses this to play Taksunoko vs. Capcom on his Wii all the time. And it's the only safe, public, and legal way to do so.
