Pandora's Tower teaser trailer

mutant chick With this, Operation Rainfall is a success in a very major aspect as we finally get a "trailer" for Pandora's Tower.

Now, while Xenoblade Chronicles will be coming to North America in April and the announcement of The Last Story coming to the US this year, Europe will get the first taste. Still, if Pandora's Tower doesn't get a US release, at least the game has an English iteration and that is surely better than having it in Japanese only.

This isn't really a trailer nor would I call it a real teaser but the video shows what looks to be the collector's edition of Pandora's Tower. Pretty standard fare, steelbook case, a copy of the game, and a dinky art books. Very similar to The Last Story's CE with the exception of the game's OST being included.

Alright Wii owners, we got what we wanted. Rejoice!

The Last Story trailer... in English?!

ENGLISH Can it be? Are we going to get The Last Story in English? Please let it be true!

The Last Story, created by the father of Final Fantasy himself Hironobu Sakaguchi, is one of the "Swords" from Operation Rainfall (a community formed to supposed the internation localization of 3 Japanese Wii games).

Xenoblade got a European release and will soon get an American release in April, 2012. Now that is all well and good and I will definitely find a way to score myself a copy of Xenoblade but The Last Story was the top game that I wanted localized from the 3 game being pushed by Operation Rainfall. With this English trailer it looks like I'm getting my wish. I hope that Pandora's Tower also gets localized because I am also very interested in that game.

Nintendo, Why Won't You Let Me Give You My Money? - Fan Plea

Andrew Eisen puts up a good argument against Nintendo on why they should localize the Operation Rainfall games to North America. We have hard earned money and we want to give it to Nintendo. Right now. Nintendo can't seem to take a hint.

He kind of sounds like Agent Smith noh? He also kind of looks like Sabertooh from X-Men Origins.

Nintendo of America heard us and responded

Operation Rainfall is gaining a lot of buzz about their battle of wanting The Last Story, Xenoblade, and Pandora's Tower localized, Nintendo of America finally heard the fans. They reposnded by posting a status on their Facebook page that said this.

"Thank you for your enthusiasm. We promised an update, so here it is. We never say “never,” but we can confirm that there are no plans to bring these three games to the Americas at this time. Thanks so much for your passion, and for being such great fans!"

Real dick move Nintendo (of America). Not cool.

Nintendo! Localize these games! NOW!

We all know the Wii is on life support now, especially with the announcement of the Wii U. Nintendo claims that the Wii U will coexist with the Wii but aside from Skyward Sword, there seems to be no other big name Wii title coming out this year... in North America at least.

This has led to Operation Rainfall, a campaign started by Wii owners to try to convince Nintendo to localize The Lasy Story, Xenoblade, and Pandora's Tower. I myself want these 3 games localized too as they look fantastic.

The Last Story is a game headed the legendar Hironobu Sakaguchi, the father of Final Fantasy.

Xenoblade has 'Xeno' in it so I bet you're all thinking about Xenogears and Xenosaga right now. Oh by the way, Xenoblade looks incredible too.

Pandora's Tower is a sort of action brawler Castlevania looking thing which I have to say I am also very interested to play.

Help out the cause so that Nintendo will finally get a fucking clue and localize these games! I doubt it'd even cost them that much in the first place. If they claim that the Wii will coexist with the Wii U they'd better prove it.

I heard that Xenoblade will be localized in Europe, they weren't allowed to announce it at this year's E3 because Nintendo of America handles stuff there. If Nintendo of America still doesn't get their act together, I'll have to import the game. But what about the other 2?
