There's no Mother 4. What in God's Hell are you talking about?

The problem isn't that Nintendo isn't localizing these three games. It's that they consistently refuse to localize games when the games being made in the US are either shit or non-existent. It's that at this point they aren't even remotely bothering to support the Wii, and if they're prone to abandon their own consoles like this I have no interest in supporting their other consoles.

I feel kind of bad for folks supporting the Wii U because Nintendo's just basically said "Fuck you" to every hardcore gamer who purchased a Wii in hopes that the Wii would support the hardcore gamer community.

I mean I understand the Wii U is supposed to be different, but it's not like Xenoblade and The Last Story are helping Nintendo make a strong preliminary impression

It's funny because around 2008 or so, at the height of my own personal Wii-craze, I was utterly convinced that Sony was going to fall apart. Three years later and I'm more confident in Sony's current strategy than anyone else's. Maybe 'confident' isn't entirely the right word, because I'm not sure how it appeals to everyone who isn't me, but I'm certainly more personally gratified by Sony's future PS3 exclusives lineup and the Vita.

Link - The fangame. And if Nintendo shuts it down, you can be sure the fans will revolt, given that they have yet to bring over the other 3 games. That's why I put M4 as its own separate thing, not part of the Mother series.

BTW - Fire Emblem. Nintendo always screws over the fanbase.

If Nintendo shuts the project down, the revolution will be beat down with a few simple words.

"Shouldn't have called it Mother 4."
I mean, seriously? I have no idea whether or not Mother 3 concluded the series, or whatever. Never even played the series myself. But placing your fangame in the series like that is never a good idea, and is asking for trouble.
