Over the last couple weeks, online group Operation Rainfall has been boldly pushing Nintendo to do something that shouldn’t be too hard: publish good games. Unfortunately the games in question are fairly niche JRPGs, a genre that’s never been a big seller for Wii. Nintendo of America promised a response to the vocal collective, but it wasn’t the one we wanted to hear. NoA said it currently has “no plans” to publish those games.
In a Facebook update, Nintendo said, “Thank you for your enthusiasm. We promised an update, so here it is. We never say ‘never,’ but we can confirm that there are no plans to bring these three games to the Americas at this time. Thanks so much for your passion, and for being such great fans!” Nintendo had a similar Twitter reply: “Thanks for being such incredible fans! Unfortunately, there continues to be no plans for NOA to release these 3 games right now.”
For the JRPG fans reading this, things may seem pretty grim, but you can always hold on to the hope in the words “at this time.” Maybe they don’t have any plans now, but who knows about a month from now? Of course, Nintendo has a spotty history with publishing niche titles like those, something fans of Fire Emblem and Mother/Earthbound know all too well.
