When one great RPG was released only in Japan, people were annoyed. When two great RPGs were released only in Japan, they became legitimately upset. But when three great RPGs were denied to them, they got organised. This was the birth of Operation Rainfall, a public — and as it turns out completely successful — petition to get these three Wii-only RPGs localised in the west.
As if to Lord it over American Wii owners, Europe is not only getting Japanese role-playing games The Last Story and Pandora’s Tower, they’re getting them with fancy reversible covers.
OK, so the box art for Pandora’s Tower is way to similar to Final Fantasy’s art. But the upcoming Wii game’s latest trailer is original enough to seem engaging. You know what sells it? Raw monster meat.
