I'm surprised.
The last FF game on the Wii sold like 20k.
Fatal Frame 4 is the best selling game in the series in Japan I believe.

The last few on Playstation hardly did shit either.I'm surprised.

See this, Nintendo? This is what's going to make me buy your freaking console.
Don't fuck it up, NoA.[/QUOTE]
It is ironic Nintendo's crazy experiments in control methods fit so well with their sanitized happy worlds [I]and also[/I] horror games. Wiimote's lantern, Gamepad camera obscura.
Btw, does anyone look at this like Sonic Boom? A franchise that's trying to gain more popularity via a cross-media campaign despite being solely game focused before?
Eh? Sonic's been in much more than video games ever since he was born.

If the movie, comic or novel gets popular, I could see that helping the game. In all honesty, is any Tecmo-Koei franchise doing well these days? It might be why they're willing to partner up with Nintendo as much as they have.

Dammit have to buy a wiiU now...
Not going to be stupid though - will import the USA model since there's no way in hell it's getting a PAL release.
Two games in a row that didn't make it to NOA is a pattern, not a coincidence.
Then don't.Like Outlast, but Wii U don't have Outlast right now.
The point is, i like Fatal Frame but Wii U not much (maybe after Smash Bros i will consider my position), so, i don't want buy a console for a single digit of games.
Are you talking about the remake? I think Fatal Frame 4 actually sold slightly better than the previous installments in Japan w/ 75K. Even the Wii remake sold 45K (1, 2, and 3 sold 45K, 68K, and 69K respectively). It's a very low-selling franchise, but it seems to sell fairly consistently in Japan at the very least.
It will never get localised on Wii U.
Do you want me to say yes?Is it even gonna be localized?
Why not save the announcement until E3? That'd give this much more exposure.
What will it get localized on, then?
Tomodachi. Worldwide simultan release of X and Pokemon. Nintendo translating more and more games in general. Yes, a pattern.

X is getting a worldwide simultaneous release? When was that announced? I thought only Japan had a timeframe announced and the rest of the world is TBA.
Not like the Wii U has many games they could throw it a bone this time or somethin.E3 is usually for Western products. Not domestic niche stuff that may or may not get localized.

Finally with X getting a quick NA release confirmation and Nintendo publishing Hyrule Warriors outside Japan I feel confident in the game coming over to the US.
Eh, who knows.Considering the US didn't get the Wii Fatal Frames, I would not count on it, unless Nintendo is really desperate.
E3 is usually for Western products. Not domestic niche stuff that may or may not get localized.
I'd venture a guess that we'd see a trailer at E3, perhaps in a sizzle reel. People are forgetting that this is a ultra niche franchise that would be lucky to sell 150k worldwide.
Not to mention there's no point to show it at E3 if NoA don't plan on localising it... (Though I do believe it will be localised, as people have already mentioned, Spirit Camera saw a worldwide release, FFIV didn't mainly because Tecmo-Koei refused to fix gamebreaking bugs and FFII Remake was only released in Europe because NoA had basically given up on the Wii by 2012 and wasn't localising anything (Which is why we saw the mass localisation of Japanese games by NoE).
It would be lunacy if this wasn't localised, Hopefully it is actually FFV and not a inane spin-off like Spirit Camera.
It's been rumored that NoE are concurrently translating it as it is being developed, although of course this hasn't been confirmed and is pure conjecture. I highly doubt it will be a simultaneous release, but I don't think we'll have to wait as long as we did for Xenoblade/Last Story.
Mhm, I get that, just that if I were Nintendo, I'd try to give this game life by making it a part of my E3 lineup. A niche product is better than no product, considering that (as of now) we have no idea what Nintendo might show and it might help make their time on stage less anemic.

Honestly, how would this not come stateside? Look at NoA's lineup. They know they need this.
Localization should really depends on weather movie makes it to the West (due to copyright issues).
Idk about feeling depressed I dont let games do that to me, but they should show at e3 if its any good.Depressing isn't it?
I don't think the obvious result of Nintendo publishing a Zelda IP action spin-off bodes anything for the more obscure or niche IPs being released outside of Japan.
Nintendo is putting some money into it. Likely.
Yeeeeees, best gaming-news in a while for me! This better not be another "Spirit Camera" bullshit spin-off; A real successor to FF4 in HD with good controls is all I want from my WiiU.
Pretty please Nintendo, I won't even complain if Zelda WiiU get's pushed to the next consoleok, that's a lie, but I'll complain a little less ;-)

1. Bring new Fatal Frame to NA.
2. Implement full GamePad integration.
3. Jump scares will cause people to drop the GamePad in fear. GamePad breaks.
4. Customer will have to buy new GamePad.
5. ???
6. Probably very little PROFIT.
Do it Nintendo.
