Are there any important Japan only Wii games out recently or soon?
Arcade or action style where language is not a barrier (not RPG).

I've been keeping on PA listings but it seems devoid of excitement at the mo.

Please link me if you find some.

Not recent, but a Fatal Frame 4 translation is nearly complete and I'll be picking it up when it is.

Taiko no Tatsujin Wii? It's still a bit expensive, but probably worth it if you enjoy rhythm games.

There's Biohazard 0 also, which still (I think) hasn't been planned for a western release.

I didn't know about that, and that's a great way of implementing it too! I might email them asking for them to send me an affiliate link to purchase the game by, as they most certainly deserve it.

Wow, great. Time to put that order in then!

Sengoku Musou 3 in November. That's the only title I can think of where language probably won't be an issue. Otherwise I would say Valhalla Knights Elder Saga out on October 8th, or Calling.

How about Tamaran???

That's just Mercury Meltdown Revolution, though, isn't it?

[charlesr]

Could be

Well, if you haven't got it, buy it, because it's superb. I understand it's a region-free disc, bizarre as that sounds.

[mekanor]

wait, serious? surely nintendo wouldnt stand for such things

[charlesr]

You made that up surely?

[egparadigm]

I didn't make it up, someone on here told me. I would test it if I could find a suitable way of simulating a non-American boot on the Wii.

Play asia have it down as jpn encoding

It would be incredible to think that they released a region free wii game as i know nintendo hate that kind of stuff on home consoles & lock them down as much as they can.

What on earth are all the guys in Japan playing on these tens of thousands of Wiis they are selling each week?!!? US games presumably
