Platinum Games cares about their Western fans
“Japanese game companies are notorious for not ‘getting it’. They are thought of as slow moving, orthodox, and out of touch. One of the places where Japanese companies seem to not ‘get it’ is community. Sure, you may have an American branch leading a great community effort, but it is very rare for a Japanese company to reach out in a meaningful way to its Western users. PlatinumGames.com is our attempt at getting it right. It isn’t simply a translation of our Japanese webpage.” – Note on PlatinumGames.com
You really have to love PlatinumGames. Not only are they completely devoted developers, but they really care about their fans, including Westerners.
