Since Fatal Frame: The Black Haired Shrine Maiden’s original announcement, fans have been wondering if the game would leave Japan. While we still don’t have an official answer, Koei Tecmo’s European Twitter account has weighed in. A message posted just a short while ago states that Fatal Frame: The Black Haired Shrine Maiden appears to be a Japan-only title.

The full message is as follows:

Yesterday, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma took to Miiverse and shared another message about the upcoming Hyrule Warriors DLC for Europe. It’s largely similar to the North American message shared a few days ago, but we do have another screenshot of Epona in action.

Calling me a Legend of Zelda fan would be a bit of an understatement. If you were to step into my room, you’d be blinded by the posters and merchandise scattered from one wall to another, all finished off with my saddening number of physical Zelda titles. So with the announcement of Hyrule Warriors during last December’s Nintendo Direct, I was nothing short of excited; providing an excuse for having our beloved Zelda worlds and characters collide in one epic horde fighting action game sounds like a dream come true, and every day I spent waiting for the game felt like an eternity. Now that I’ve sped my way through this long journey over the past week, I can safely say my excitement was placed in good hands.

The North American Hyrule Warriors Limited Edition was truly limited. Prior to the store’s opening, 600 fans showed up at Nintendo World in New York earlier today in hopes of grabbing a copy, but many left empty handed.

Reports indicate that there were between 300 and 500 units available. It seems that if you weren’t on line by 4 AM or so, you wouldn’t have an opportunity to obtain a wristband entitling yourself to a copy. All stock was distributed within Nintendo World’s first opening hour today.

The situation was much different in Europe and Japan. Both territories received limited edition releases of Hyrule Warriors that were distributed in larger quantities and at several retailers.

Some fans who were able to grab a copy of the Hyrule Warriors Limited Edition from Nintendo World are now turning to eBay in hopes of turning a profit. There are already a few listings seeking over $250.
