I played Earthbound. Because i heard it was really good but i found it a bit disappointing. It was good enough to make me want to play Mother 3 and I thought mother 3 was great in every way. It is also disappointing to me that it's only in japan and i probably should not say that have it but i think Mother 3 should come out America. Are there any games you know of that you really want to have an international release. I also want Kingdom hearts 1 and 2 final mixes to come out here.

I know many people (although not me, because I live in America) that live in the UK that are awaiting the release of BlazBlue: Continuum Shift.

Oh, I have to second you on releasing the final mix versions of the first 2 kingdom hearts games. I would really like those to come stateside. Besides those though, I cannot think of anything else that I would like to come stateside that is not already coming stateside.

Namco X Capcom is a game id give almost ANYTHING to have a International release for.

Super Robot Taisen OG Saga:Endless Frontier EXCEED is another game i want, but there is a good chance it will be released internationally.

I wish the Naruto: Clash of Ninja series had kept going with the original games instead of releasing watered-down American versions to keep up with the current console generation.

I wish Fire Emblem had been released in America far earlier than what it had. Maybe then it would have been a bigger series here.

I also wouldn't mind some of the Adult-rated games to be released and for sale here. I've never seen an adult-rated game before, but I read up some of the various titles. So I'm just curious to see what Japan gets away with.

The original Star Ocean was actually remade for the PSP, I thought.

My tears could fill a pool for the amount of time I've been waiting for them to port the thing...

They also remade Mega Man for the PSP, do you think it's just as good as the original? Or is it too different?

Either way it's not the same.

To be fair, Clash Of Ninja Revolution 3 stopped the second series from being shit. As much as I love the shippuuden series of games, it's far slower than it used to be. Rev 3 added loads of stuff (like a better Latent Ninja Power mode) and gave us online (and made 1010 shitter than she should be, and Kakashi a god).

Gekitou Ninja Taisen! 4 is still the pinnacle of the series. Play-Asia.com are still mugging people in bare virtual space with a price tag of £59.99, and it's sold out right now.

I certainly wouldn't mind if they released more of them here in the US. We do get a few, including some really really good titles, not counting stuff that's fan-translated, but Japan still seems to keep the best stuff for itself. They also keep most of the crap, granted, but I'm willing to stomach stuff like Kisaku being available if it means I can finally play Brighter Than the Dawning Blue.

...why oh why did the translation project for Air have to stall?

I'm still more than a little pissed at Nintendo for only releasing Fatal Frame 4 in Japan. I want that freaking game! >.<
