Post by: WuTangTurtle on December 17, 2004, 06:54:32 AM
According to Nintendo Power, Tales of Phantasia is coming to the U.S. their is another game titled Tales.......err i forget but im not sure if it is part of the series or some other game that happens to have the word Tales at the front.
Anyways I can't wait for this one, anyone know any enhancements or bonuses in the Gba version?

Is that the SNES game? It's coming to GBA?
What about that other Tales, the one that had makeshift pictures of Lloyd and Kratos and co.? That one looked interesting...

I just checked my latest Nintendo Power (the January issue, volume 187, with with a big white NDS cover) and all I could find was that "Tales of Phantasia" and "Tales of the World: Narikiri Dungeon 2" were listed in the GBA section of the Game Watch Forecast page.
They've both been there for at least a year now. I don't think it means anything.
Narikiri Dungeon 3 (the one with Symphonia characters, it's not placeholder art, it's a "crossover" game) should be coming out in Japan in January.
Narikiri Dungeon 2 (the one NP seems to be waiting for) came out in Japan back in October 2002.
I don't think we're going to be getting any of them. Namco sucks balls when it comes to their American releases. I suggest illegal bootlegs.

Ninty Power has had ToP listed for the longest time...Please localize it, Namco! ;_;

More than a year ago, DarkForce wrote on DeJap's website (DeJap is the group that fan-translated the SNES version)
Quote On a side note, I contacted Namco to ask if they would let us port and translate the new GBA version of ToP legitimately for a North American release. I was told a flat out "No." by their localization manager. Reason: head office didn't yet feel that ToP was suitable for English speaking audiences (i.e. they wouldn't make enough money from it); and then I was told even if they did want to translate it they would never let us do it. Heh... Stupid Namco.
I just figured I'd mention it for anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

Doesn't Tales of Phantasia have some naughty stuff in it? You know what I mean. And what about that 'tiger' joke? ^_^
I still have the cartridge lying somewhere, can't read Japanese though...

Tigers are frail, cuddly little kittens deep down inside. But that doesn't mean Arche won't claw you while --
