Nintendo May Localize Unreleased DS Games

[Goli]

I suppose that since Super Robot Taisen W has almost every single copyright imaginable that has to do with giant robots

I suppose we should give up on that then huh

Not that it ever had a chance. Nintendo only localizes and/or publishes games from third parties that are big enough for them to do so, like Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest. Super Robot Taisen games are only popular in Japan, so even if they did it wouldn't sell here. Everyone should stop saying Blood of Bahamut and other third party games like the Tales series, it will not happen. Blood of Bahamut for instance sold poorly in Japan, got average reviews and it has a lot of text; sure it may have elements from Final Fantasy but that doesn't guarantee anything. If they do bring over an unreleased game it will be a first party one that hasn't been translated, probably something like Card Hero or ASH; both of which have trademarks in America.

Atlus localized it.
Gosh, inform yourself better

Well Soma Bringer would be good even though I played the fan-trans.Though I would also love to see localized 3rd party games like some people already had been mentioning.

SUPER ROBOT TAAAAIIISEENN W NAOUWWW

and Chou Shoujuu Mech MG (Super Operation Mechanic MG)

IGNORE THE ANNOYING TRAILER AND LOOK AT THE GAMEPLAY

there are 40+ robots in this 3rd person game...and EACH robot has a different controls differently..

It even made it into the IGN's Top 15 Most Bizzare Games - http://ds.ign.com/articles/933/933210p2.html

Reminds Me of this one robot game that was on the Nintendo 64
Not custom robo or blast corps
cant remember the name

 

[Inunah]

Hmmm.... They should give a survey out to Club Nintendo members asking what games they'd like to see localized.

Like, have a text box so you can type out whatever games, and then if they see same names on multiple surveys..... XD

I'd vote for these though...

Nanashi no Game
Nanashi no Game Me
All 3 Taiko no Tatsujin DS games
All Death Note DS Games
Jam with the Band (I know it has an E release, but U peeps who don't pirate should get the love too)
Chibi-Robo: Happy Richie Osouji
Slide Adventure Mag Kid
Blood of Bahamut
Jump Ultimate Stars
Jump Super Stars
Osu 1 and 2
All Tales DS Games
7th Dragon
Will o' Wisp
Coropata

Some of those that are grouped together, I'd list by name, not like how they are...

 

[8BitWalugi]

What was the problem exactly? It'd be really useful if you completed that.
Game crashed when I tried loading some more graphics from the US game into the J game.

Tomodachi Collection... Now! End of comment
+1

All 3 Taiko no Tatsujin DS games -Great games yes, but they'd just have to change the songs.
Jam with the Band (I know it has an E release, but U peeps who don't pirate should get the love too) -Import it
Jump Ultimate Stars -Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too many copyright issues.
Osu 1 and 2 EBA was meant to be a localisation on Ouendan 1, so if anything we need an EBA 2. "The Elite Beat Agents. Because we beat you." Props to anyone who gets it.

The only good ones are the ones that feature Gundams and/or Gurren Lagann and/or Gao Gai Gar.

 

[InuYasha]

Well an english zoids ds game would be nice,but really hoping for news about an english release of DQMJ2...

 

[Paarish]

Tales of or gtfo

what he said! and Jump as well

 

[BlueStar]

No way! Soma Bringer?
QUOTE(Dark Langin @ Nov 6 2010, 07:55 PM) YAY FIRE EMBLEM!!!! :AWSOME:

You know the list of games is just guessing from the person who wrote the article, and Nintendo haven't actually said which games they'll localise? It's possible that instead of translating some epic, text-heavy RPGs with only a niche appeal it'll be games more in the Animal Crossing/Style Boutique mould.

This oh god this plus more super robot taisen OG SAGA

 

[Delta517]

Now lets see if they keep their word...

 

[RE4zombie]

I would like to see Soma Bringer, ASH, and Jump Ultimate Stars get a US release.

 

[RKz]

i wish tales of innocence would be localized...

 

[heavyknight]

Let's hope this doesn't turn into the GBA, that was dropped a tad bit early... If it only had a little more time, we would've had Summon Night SC3!

 

[Rubedo]

I can't believe people actually think Jump Ultimate Stars might get localized.
IT CANNOT HAPPEN. PERIOD.
That is, unless it was a SEVERELY gimped game with half the characters cut out.

 

[suruz]

Seriously. Nanashi no Game or I have no faith in video games anymore.

HELL YES, that game looks beyond awesome!!

EDIT: Wouldn't mind those DSiWare collections they throw out now and then that work on the DS.

...Wait what? They actually do that? :S I WANTTTT

Meh, I dont know why people even want it to be localized... There's already a pretty much complete translation out there, and it's just a fighting game anyway, albeit a pretty good one :/ I wish they'd localize Blood of Bahamut or 7th Dragon, but.. those aren't even made by Nintendo? o___O
