Hokage's Room

Did ja hear? Did ja hear? They’re actually gonna come out with FES! It’s that a shock to your system? I didn’t expect for them to actually grace America with something relatively good, but boy was I wrong. They’re giving us a remake for a game that hasn’t even been out for a year yet! Doesn’t that just make you feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside?

Atlus suddenly doesn’t seem like a mean company—unlike Square Enix! Atlus has made something and decided to give it to us. On the other hand, when ‘that-other-company’ re-creates something that sounds vaguely interesting, it’s not available to ‘we who dwell in the Western Hemisphere’.

Japan: “Hey! Look! We have Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix—and it’s got so much more content that you’ll be playing for days without end with the extra bosses and story. It’s probably going to be on the best selling list—but sorry. We’re not going to localize it…or even let it leave Japan.”

America: “…”

Japan: “We hope you understand.”

Moral: Don't expect Square Enix to do remakes.
