>What's that, we have a game that was co-developed by first party nintendo devs that's already 100% in english outside of some text with a darker tone, voice acting and poofy anime hair that could help us push back against the "PS1 has games for adults like FF7, look at this CGI cutscene" marketing?>Nah we're not releasing it, publish a 10th wrestling game insteadwas NOA stupid or just actively bigoted like all western branches were in the 90s?
>>12057405They could have been worried about the story. I don’t exactly understand wtf is going on, and I’ve tried. Treasure does that. That said, I love the game. I’ve also spent many hours playing Radiant Silvergun and I have even less of an idea of what is going on there. I don’t think it would’ve been some huge hit here in the states. Like most Treasure games it’s a niche audience. Mischief Makers wasn’t a huge moneymaker, and I don’t think Bangal-O made tons of money when it finally reached the states on the Dreamcast. I think Treasure did better in the Genesis days because they weren’t quite so out there. The further off the beaten path you go as an artist (or company in this case), the more you reduce your audience. Eventually its down to like 3 people on a retro game forum 25 years later that love the shit out of the game that only sold a few copies.
>>12057405>Nah we're not releasing it, publish a 10th wrestling game insteadIt wouldve release in 2001, they just didn't see it as viable when the GC was right around the corner
>>12058474>Release a game in 2001 that your own company co-developed so you'd obviously know its been in the works for a while and would take literally no time to get ready because 99% of the game is already in englishnah its not worth the money>Publish a third party game in 2001 by a studio nobody gives a shit about and who actively caused drama when one of their previous games had a lengthy rant in the rom by one of the programmers about how he hates nintendo, most of his coworkers, and how black women style their hair discovered by hackers within a week of its release oh also it would use the exact same size of cartridgesyeah fuckin send itnow admittedly I don't work in the video game publishing industry but it seems like neither of these are especially great uses of money https://tcrf.net/The_New_Tetris
