Games you didn't even know were released

Only messing!

Not quite that bad, but I was quite surprised when I found out they hadn't killed off the Master System in other parts of the world. In the US, we didn't get anything past Sonic 1, so finding out there was a Sonic 2 (etc) for the SMS was quite the "whoa" moment.

LOL, I saw Innocent Life in the shop yesterday. Good to see that Natsume still has the same QA going on with their translations. Check the back of the box.

I'll make sure to look next time, the translations are always hilariously wrong

Here are a few that have crept by into the night in PAL land certainly.......

Echo Night Beyond



Kuon

Like East Anglia the West Country is always 10 years behind the times :-)

Suprised Shinobido (Tenchu v.2 in all but name) was mentioned - perhaps it is because it was only released in UK/EU not US NTSC that it was off the radar for people here.

To add a couple more people may not have noticed (sorry no pack shots): UK PAL PS2 Panzer Front Auf.B and US/JAP NTSC only PS2 (Naval Ops) Warship Gunner 2.

BTW Maybe the reasons Kuon (which I had heard about and dismissed very quickly) and Echo Night Beyond haven't been noticed is because after their US release they received **** reviews.

I have this theory that in such cases the publishers still bring it out on PAL but actually don't want anybody to notice. The vain (?) hope being that once it's on the shop shelves at, a reduced price point, the ignorant will buy it on the strength of the cover and blurb. PS2 Trapt is another obscure title which seems to fit this profile too.

That's a shocking price. I've wanted this game on PAL ever since my import became unplayable (in a wtf is going on? kinda way). I'd never pay the full 30 for it though. I would have thought it'd get released in the budget range since it's been released with no particular hype or pedigree. I was hoping to see it in Asda beside crap like Yakuza Fury and Demolition Girl for about 12.99. Ridiculous.
