    ONLY: Mother 3 (GBA, Nintendo)
    At this point it pretty obvious the nips are trying to say this game is should remain some Japanese only icon. Gay. Frick nationalism.

      Localization would brutalize the game. It's for the best. Play the unofficial translation already.

        So there's something in the game that indoctrinated cultist leftist would see in the game and think they need to instantly change? Fricking absurd. America really will have civil war soon.

          Yes. The magypsies. 5 o'clock shadowed genderless crossdressers who one... and I'm not making this up... is heavily implied to molest Lucas (which gives him magic powers). Nintendo is not going to deal with that shit and risk Americans going fricking bonkers over.

            that's not what happens at all. part of the reason why this game is so controversial despite literally having an all ages rating in japan is because people keep making shit up about it.
            might as well mention that the final boss of mother 2 is actually a giant fetus while you're at it

                So that's what comes to mind when you see a troony get behind a little boy in the bath, says "endure it" and fades to black? Explain to me... why did it need to fade to black if all he did was put his head under water? The head popping out of water is only for plausible deniability that something untoward just happen, but come the frick on. Don't play dumb.

            Not only that, but Zoomers nowadays view the word gypsy the same as the word Black person. So much of the game would be absolutely butchered if it got localized at this point.

        Mother 3 isn't compatible with Nintendo of America's posture or brand. And they know that an official localization that lets it conform to that brand is not what the people demanding an official translation will not be happy with that. They also know that everyone who's making a big fuss about it every time it comes up have already played it and are actually tremendously unlikely to buy it. They're not going to localize a 20 year old Game Boy Advance game for an as is, emulated release. The only way they'd consider localizing it is if a remake enters development at Nintendo proper. And they still might decide against it for the same reason as above. The people with the strongest feelings about it already have expectations that cannot be met. The people who are the most likely to care are the least likely to accept what is reasonable to release. It's probably never going to happen, it's not worth doing. They made a huge mistake in not cutting Lucas from Brawl.

        Le troons have nothing to do with it you morons the whole game's OST would need remade because of the inane amount of unlicensed samples

            Did the direct already happen? Everybody is pretty quiet.

            It says "partner" direct, but it was basically a direct in everything but official branding only. Most of the big hypes around directs are Nintendo titles, if you haven't noticed right now. I think Nintendo is just kinda checked out right now, but they definitely need more first party games on the way.

        your post made some amount of sense until this part. doing that would have only added to the mystery of mother 3 and made even more rabid autists (and you know how smashgays are) curious as they'd prattle about the japan only character, the next marth/roy, etc. and mother 3 autism would be streisand effect'd into the stratosphere

      you genuinely couldn't localise mother 3 to a western audience anymore because of some of the characters.

      Shut the frick up. Just fricking shut the frick up already. It has been 18 (EIGHTEEN) FRICKING YEARS. You could have learned Japanese AND played the game in full in a fraction of that time, and probably some other Japan only games as well. And if you're too lazy to learn moonrunes, you could have played the fan translation in the 16 (SIXTEEN) FRICKING YEARS it's been out already. Any modern localization of the game would completely frick it up and the fan translation itself is of extremely high quality, to the point where the team was receiving letters from people claiming to be insiders that begged them NOT to release it because it was literally too good and would kill any choice of an official localization (not that it was ever going to happen anyway).
      Yes, I'm mad. I'm fricking sick of you mongoloids begging for this one game that you could've played several times over by now. You don't actually give a shit about Mother 3 or want to play it, you just want the HECKIN EPIC META STORY to come to a conclusion. Eat shit.

      Nintendo has turned a blind eye specifically to this game for decades. Never attempted to take down the fan translation or stop repros. Why don’t people just emulate this game or play it on an unofficial cart if they want it so bad? This is a legitimate question

        At least partially because of how much of the rights are held by Shigesato Itoi.

    Why does Nintendo waste our time with these "partner showcases"? It's basically tacit admittance that they have no first party material to show off. Let me know if Xenoblade is dead or not, then I'll maybe consider watching you give your "partners" a pity frick.

      Nintendo blew their load last year. Metroid Prime Remastered, Tears of the Kingdom, Pikmin 4, SMRPG Remake, and Super Mario Wonder all launched last year. This year they're in their refractory period waiting for the Switch 2 to launch so they can blow their load again in 2025.

        NTA, but I wish they'd remaster or bring content from Elite Squadron into a new Battlefront. Customizing your character so he could have a jetpack and a blaster kicked ass. As did flying from the ground battle into the space battle up above, blowing up the enemy ship reactor, escaping via escape pod, then watching the thing break apart from the ground.

      Game looks cool so i'm not surprised they cut it from the EN direct. they have a talent for cutting out anything remotely interesting looking, to the point where i'm amazed they showed the Ender Lilies sequel since i'm pretty sure the first Ender Lilies got completely sidelined from the english version of the direct that announced it.

      well pepper grinder very much rips off the mechanics of drill dozer but also combines it with the sonic colours drilling mechanic ( and actually does stuff with it unlike sonic)

            switch 2 is likely a year or more away so that doesn't make sense and that would be worthless for preservation since switch 2 doesn't have an emulator.

            Hi-Fi rush runs on Laptops and that's WITH devuno tanking the performance but even assuming Hi-Fi rush wasn't a perfect 60 FPS on switch hardware:
            1. the game is a rhythm game. all the game logic, movement, animation etc is tied to the music track position not the framerate so it wouldn't matter if it dropped to the 50s or even 40s.
            2. it wouldn't matter to switch players since they're used to eating shit anyway.

Also I guess that kind of confirms that switch 2 is coming 2025. Why would they specifically make an effort to shows its release date in ocotober when many other games just got a genric 2024 time slot? I would imagine if switch 2 was close to ocotober they'd just push fantasy life back to make the cut, no?

      No reason to not release a game already announced on the switch, even if the switch 2 is going to release in the middle of its release date, you would be only losing customers doing that, they could do a simultaneous release or just rely on the backwards compatibility if necessary.
