IGN - "How Europe has caught up to, matched and surpassed North America. Is it time to start importing again?"
"The localization process used to make so much more sense to me. Japan got every Nintendo game first, which was understandable since that's the company's home country. Then America would get each game next, needing only a translation into English and a fresh manufacturing run to get going here. "
The rejection is non-final (and even when such rejections are labeled as “final”, the process is far from over, given that there can be, at minimum, an appeal to the Federal Circuit).
Good, as they should! A game mechanic like that shouldn't be locked behind a patent, and Nintendo didn't invent it either.
Nintendo wants to keep wasting money on bullshit lawsuits, real smart in this economy. They should put that money aside for other game projects. On the other hand, I don't care if they waste it all either, and they are screwed in the future maybe that will teach them a lesson.
Nintendo completed its share repurchase and set its secondary offering price at 8,347 yen ahead of March 16 delivery.
Xenoblade Chronicles series composer Manami Kiyota has possibly finished the final orchestra recording for the next Monolith Soft title.
Makes sense. It's been nearly 3 years since the DLC for 3 came out. The next Xenoblade or whatever they end up calling it will probably come out next year.
Man, NOA really needs to improve :\
I hate when games end up region exclusives. I guess that's a damn good reason to learn another language and just import them.
This, by the way, is the reason I don't own a Wii and am skeptical about acquiring a WiiU.
