Why Tales of Graces Wii isn’t coming to North America/Europe

Posted on July 4, 2011 by (@NE_Brian) in News, Wii

Tales of Graces F, the “enhanced” PS3 game that build off of the original version, is coming to North America. The Wii game is still staying in Japan. Why?

Tales Studio executive Makoto Yoshizumi explained:

“We wish to deliver the best and most complete experience for US and European fans, therefore we’re localizing Tales of Graces f. The game on the PS3 version is on a blu-ray disc. It would be next to impossible to condense all the game’s data on a Wii disc, so unfortunately, there will be no Wii release.”

I don’t know… that reasoning sounds iffy to me. I have no idea how much additional content is in the PS3 game, but does it really warrant the lack of localization for the Wii version? Plus, wouldn’t it be at all possible for Namco Bandai to release the game as is, without the PS3 extras?
