Come on, NOA, let's not get back into that routine of not localizing stuff that Europe does.  If it's Japan-only I get that there could be some cultural differences that make the game unmarketable here but aside from soccer games what game that would fly in Europe would not fly here?  It was frustrating on the Wii and it is frustrating now on the Wii U for the same reason - there are NO games.  The release schedule is quite empty due to a lack of third party support so when a game is available you release it because you owe it to Wii U owners to try to make their decision to buy your product worth their while.  You can be picky when you've got an abundance of games being released but you don't.  Localizing this means that maybe someone only has to wait two months between games instead of four.

NOA probably thinks "well this won't sell that much" but they fail to realize the damage that having a thin library of titles can have on their reputation with customers.  You think the Wii U's weak start happened in a vacuum?  You don't think that the very slim release schedule of the last two years of the Wii's life had anything to do with?  Nintendo neglected their customers in those last few Wii years and that likely soured a good amount of them on purchasing the follow up.  Even if they were just taking a wait-and-see approach the launch figures were weak, third parties pulled out, and anyone being cautious had their justification for doing so.

NOA should show that they care about the few customers they actually have.  So they should localize this, regardless of whether it isn't that good or isn't expected to sell that well, so that their customers think that they give a ****.

Excellent post. NoA is really indefensible and has been for a while now.

Nintendo of America never had a release date for Yoshi. Thus, it isn't technically delayed. It's just coming out much later than every other region.

This game along with Little Battlers Experience, Yokai Watch, Animal Crossing: HHD, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon, and The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes means that the system is going to have a lot of games that interest me this fall and holiday season!

Good news. For some reason, maybe it's because the game is so far away for us in the West, I'm not yet hyped about Fates yet.

Since Super Mario 3D World has been done for a while, I would think we might see a new 3D Mario come out at the next console's launch. That would be really cool to see again.

Up to stage 15, enjoying it so far, very Mario-esque with the introduce a concept, master the concept, drop it for a new one. I'll finish it later and tell you what I think of the rest.

Thanks so much for trying the game out!
I actually did a short ten-minute presentation last night as part of a series of talks about my philosophy regarding the level and puzzle design of my game, and that was one of the points I had. Also, about taking one mechanic, adding another later on, and then combining the two mechanics into one unique challenge for a level or two.

I'm really happy you're liking the game!

My friend Rob made this trailer for my game that I developed and published. I merely gave him some minor direction like the Captain Toad trailer-esque "show a bunch of levels in a grid" idea.

You can download my game for free on itch.io and soon to be Desura! Or you can just search "Super Push Adventure" on a search engine to find out more about the game!

For Devil's Third it sounds like it's Nintendo of America being their poopy selves.

I don't know what this is supposed to mean. Are you saying NoA is just stupid? Is this game not coming this year?

Nintendo of America could be either not releasing it here, getting someone else to publish it, or stealth releasing it with little fanfare like many games they've published in the past.

Here are my captions for this contest. Even if they don't win, it was fun writing 'em up.

Extreme Exorcism: "Too bad the Ghostbusters are too busy filming their new movie instead of helping out here where they're needed."


forma.8: "It's darker than an original model Game Boy Advance screen in here!"


Freedom Planet: "Don't mean to cut you guys off, but my grandma drives faster than you!"


Lovely Planet: "I'm diabetic, so I don't just have to worry about the enemies but the sugary environment as well!"


Mutant Mudds Super Challenge: "Presenting the ghost with the most... carefully brushed teeth!"


RIVE: "Maybe there's a scannable target hidden in that epic beard of yours, dude."


Runbow: "They said to sacrifice a virgin. I wasn't available, so they chose this blockhead instead."


Soul Axiom: "Not only are my hands open, but so is my mind to solve this puzzle!"


Typoman: "I was going to go for a short adventure, but it ended up too wordy."

I care inasmuch as its given me even less reason to want this game. I was already on the fence due to the barrier for trying to play this locally. Playing this game online isn't very cooperative, and it looks like you actually need that here. Looks like a pass, but we'll see.

You can at least play the game locally with one game card among multiple 3DSes. Is that the barrier you mean, or something else, Adrock?
