By the way my friends at Atlus have also told me the same thing. They are also censorers. The thing is, they still make amazing games, so who cares at the end of the day. Same with Nintendo.
I believe my friends at the treehouse over you in this instance. No offense.
You are the one trying way to hard to slander Nintendo.....not me.
It is true that Nintendo made changes to Xenoblade X and Fire Emblem (which did nothing to stop sales or critical acclaim), but in this instance they did not.
"Nintendo has been on a neutering crusade on a large majority of the JRPG (and other Japanese games developed by second and third parties) it publishes" Not Bayonetta........Not Dragon Quest VII........Not Bravely Second.....Not most games actually
Like I said, you have an angry vendetta, ...
The truth would make me happy but that seems not to matter here, you just come up with excuse after excuse.
The Truth is Atlus is localizing the game and they have made the decisions, not Nintendo in this instance. That is a fact. I have heard that from 3 members of the treehouse.
But if you want to keep up your Nintendo Vendetta, so be it.
"Keep up the excuses. You're pulling out extremely old games from a time in which changes were a lot more widespread than now."
You are making excuses too........Atlus has changed games as recently as last year.....same with Sony (especially with Last of US in certain regions), Nintendo, Square, pretty much everyone........
"As for "deciding what content it is ok to cut and which content it is not ok to cut." Dungeon traveler&...
"And you mean localizing on Nintendo's platforms? lol. Because ALL of the games you mention (besides Dungeon Travelers, which has content that borders on the hentai, and is a completely different case) that's what they all have in common."
SMT Nocturne got changed, so did Digital Devil Saga, so did Devil Summoner on Sony platforms. Platform makes no difference with regards to Atlus edits. Which is fine, a great game is a great game regardless of minor loca...
Atlus has a bigger history of changing games than Nintendo does. But of course, that would not be as interesting a story.
Oh, and like SMT IV, I would not be surprised if SMT IV Apocalypse gets the same kind of dialogue/costume/model edits, but of course, it is Nintendo that is to blame when we know Atlus is localizing this right?
"There is a TON of JRPGs out there that don't get this kind of changes. If you think all JRPGs (or even the majority) get costume changes for the west, then you simply don't play many JRPGs. "
More than 75% of JRPGs get some kind of change like this. Considering I am considered one of the formost experts on JRPGs, that is a little disingenuous.
"And comparing changing Hitler with replacing panties and covering cleavages shows just h...
Not a big deal at all.
All JRPGs get costume changes like this, some worse than others, but who are we to judge.
If the choice was this never gets localized, or we get a few minor costume edits. I will take the minor costume edits every time.
By the way, Atlus censored Persona 2, Dungeon Travellers 2, Persona Q, SMT IV and more but this is automatically Nintendo's fault right?
I play mine all the time
I am in the process of getting you banned again. Loser. Not even reading what you say. Might as well stop. Nobody else reads your factless garbage anyway.
"Nintendo can't compete with Sony." Yeah that is why they have made more money via the game division over the last 15 years, sold more software too. They have generally crushed sony.
I am in the process of getting you banned again. Loser.
Since when does meta determine how good a game is?
So when Persona 2 got censored, when Devil Hacker got censored, When SMT Nocturne, when Persona 3/4 when countless Atlus games got censored, that was not bad? Xseed does the same thing
"Unlike treehouse who just replaces it with memes. " Which does not happen. They do not replace anything.
Xenoblade? A fantastic localization. Paper Jam? Fantastic. Smash Bros? Fantastic localization, all those trophies.
You are not presenting...
The Treehouse is one of the top localization teams in the industry. Better in most respects than Atlus.
No it doesnt. The Treehouse is one of the top 3 localization teams in the entire industry.
"constant changed lines for random jokes " Like all localization teams do.
Do you think any localization team translates line for line without changing things for the region the game is coming out in?
The Treehouse localized 3 fire emblem games at the same time, to critical and commercial acclaim.
And even if you do...
Makes no difference who is handling it
Nintendo is going to have an amazing e3
This is an article? Really?
NX, wait for it, will be big.
Do not be jealous of my connections. It is unbecoming.
I am not pro censorship. I just do not care. For 30 years of game buying games have been changed in the west. That will never change.
Instead of annoyingly complaining about it, I play video games and enjoy them.
SMT IV apocalypse will see changes in the West, so will Final Fantasy, so will just about every other JRPG getting localized. Does not really change the fact that I will bu...
