Nintendo to comment on missing Japanese Wii games on IGN today

Posted on June 27, 2011 by (@NE_Brian) in News, Wii

Last night, Nintendo of America finally responded to the large amount of feedback they’ve been receiving about the lack of Xenoblade, The Last Story, and Pandora’s Tower news in America. But, admittedly, it was a bit dull. They only told fans to “Look for more updates to come soon”.

That update appears to be coming sooner than originally thought. IGN’s executive Nintendo editor Rich George has revealed on his Twitter account that a more proper response will be provided on their website sometime today:

“Nintendo will have a comment on @OpRainfall ‘Missing Wii games’ movement later today. Stay tuned to @IGN and well have it for you. #myign”

George followed up that remark by saying “Have modest expectations. Don’t start thinking ‘MEGATON!'” and “I think the movement has generated so much publicity that it’s tough not to say something one way or the other.”

Honestly, I have no idea whether this means we’ll be seeing any of these games confirmed for North America. Xenoblade is the most probable candidate to be announced – again, that’s if there even if an announcement – though The Last Story and moreso Pandora’s Tower will likely be staying in Japan for now. Technically, neither title has even been announced for Europe.
