Nintendo UK comments on The Last Story localization
Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
This information comes from Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton…
“With all the conversions, when we do it in Europe we’ve got to do the whole of Europe. So it’s multiple languages. It has to be viable. We’ve got so much on our plate at the moment. The most important one is in the first quarter this year. Kirby’s Epic Yarn is the most important title. We’ve got some great product coming out. On top of that, when we add in 3DS, it’s just so much. We’ve released quite a lot of RPGs on the Wii in the UK. It’s an area that’s been growing for us. It’s up to the market. We never write anything off.”
Eventually, I believe The Last Story will be localized for North American and European markets. It just seems like a high-profile release for Nintendo. It’s a new game from the creator of Final Fantasy, bundles were made available in Japan, etc.
