going away - The Game Room

Games that exist that you can't have.

I really hate waiting for games to get translated English. And sometimes really good games don't get released in the western world at all! What's worst is that most consoles aren't region free so importing can be very expensive. D:

So, DD are there any foreign games out there that you just can't wait to get, or wish they would release in your country?

Apparently they won't be releasing a new Fatal Frame game for the Wii in America (or so I've read), and while I wasn't dying for it, it's still a darn shame.

Any game from the Super Robot Wars franchise, bar the original generation titles.

The Mother series.

ironic humor, while secretly praying for a miracle."

I don't think there are any games out there that I CAN'T have. Anything is attainable if you want it bad enough and know where to look.

Halo 3

Billy vs. Tree -- The epic struggle of boy versus tree.
Sonic Colores -- It looks like it's going to be a good game because I love how the way it makes me grow.

I have a gun. It's really powerful. Especially against living things.

A PlayStation 2 Cowboy Bebop video game was released in Japan, and the English version had been set for release in North America during the first quarter of 2006. However, as of November 2007, GameSpot reports that the North American release has been canceled.

Anything on the XBox 360 and that's only because I'm poor. :C

...also, Japanese dating sims. Don't judge me.

I think we're all well aware of that fact. But for some the cost and trouble is just beyond reasonable means.


Anyway: Metal Wolf Chaos. It's a Japanese game for the original Xbox where you play as the president of the United States of America, piloting a giant mech in order to reclaim the country after the vice president takes it from him in a coup. You get a Shark Gun at one point in the game, and yes, that's exactly what it sounds like.

A rip off of the one from Armed and Dangerous?

A friend of mine actually has Metal Wolf. It. . . really is as insane as it looks.
Hey buddy, you should be a Russian Cosmonaut, and here's why.

I like a bit of anime and Japanese culture too, but I never got what the gigantic facination was. Like I cannot imagine being a weeaboo (or whatever the fuck it is?)

Really I guess there was maybe one game I wanted, but it was a hentai game and I was like 16 so I was just happy to get my hands on any type of porn. Still cant comprehend people yearning for a japanese RPG or whatever that is (in all reality) the same as every other JRPG.

The Mother series.

I second that.From what I've read about the games (mostly trophy info on Super Smash), they sound really good.

That's everywhere I think everyone has played it. XD

It was probably horrible anyway. At least that's what I'm going to tell myself.

Being a big Puroresu (Japanese Pro-Wrestling) fan, I've always wanted to play the Wrestle Kingdom series. Is pretty much the Smackdown! vs Raw engine, but is less arcade than the WWE games...

After buying Project zero 1 and 2, I was looking forward to actually having a new game on my Wii (the last was smash brothers).

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom for the Wii.


Special note. I can have this now. It's coming stateside, though with a few minor roster changes.

MacSoft made a Mac version of Halo a while back, but I guess it's not in production anymore...or something... I've looked up copies of it on eBay, and they're all going for $50+, which I can't afford. T_T I can't put into words how saddening this is for me. I don't have an Xbox and probably won't have one for a very long time.

Dragon Force II for the Sega Saturn.

Dragon Force I was soooo good, both dialogue and gameplay wise. And I've never played anything of its mixed-genre ever since. DF2 was never translated to English, so there was no point for me to ever get it.

FIGHT current chapter: Filling In The Gaps
FIGHT_2 current chapter: Light Years of Gold

Oh god I am going to cry so much. ):

Also I'm happy to say that the only games I want but can't have are a few RPG's for the 360. The PS3 apparently isn't region locked, so if a PS3 game isn't released in America I can just import it and learn japanese. :p

Namco X Capcom. That one Grid based tactical one.

I really wanted to play a cute Kos-Mos again.
God needed the Devil, the Beatles needed the Rolling Stones, Hakoshen needs me.
I'm the enemy he requires to define him.
Soon or later, he'll bring me back to life again for another epic encounter of shouting about power levels and grimacing.
