Umineko needs your vote. The more awareness it has, the better our chances for the PS3 version to be localized.

>> No.6214831

its not going to be localized.

Higurashi is vastly more popular in the west, the anime has been dubbed and has a DS port, and even it hasnt be localized.

It's mostly because it has boards as well, and you can only guess the kind of people that frequents these boards.
Unless you absolutely NEED to find some information, I advise you to stay away from them.

Really, I had considered MHFU to be possibly one of the best games of the decade even before this poll. It's the only game I can think of where I've spent 200+ hours on one game file and haven't spent the vast majority of it grinding the same thing over and over to power level/farm read: Disgaea and Diablo II. It's challenging, fun, has loads of replayablity, and a great deal of content to boot. The only downside is the limitation of multiplayer to ad-hoc wireless (officially). I'm glad to see it on the list, but there isn't a chance it will win.

I voted, but it doesn't look like it'll do shit. Umineko's losing miserably, not that I'm surprised.

I have no problem showing my support of course, but tbh Umineko isn't really a game. How did it end up in this poll?

Also, I expected better of you, /jp/. We all know Umineko could win if you really wanted it to.

It's actually kind of an honor in itself that it even ended up on the poll.

If Umineko made it that would be a pretty great joke, considering it's not even a game.

That list is irrelevant to begin with, since it doesn't include Ninja Gaiden Black, Devil May Cry 3, Demon's Souls, or Ouendan.

The lack of shooters is also disgraceful, but I wouldn't expect a casual site like that to even know of their existence.

It was a mistake to think /jp/ would help vote for this game because it's a Visual Novel. 4chan sucks and so does /jp/. Everyone here is bitter and wants to make other people bitter as well. You should have known better, OP.

Also, there IS a chance this will be localized in USA on PS3. NISA is considering it, and they say Visual Novels is something they have been wanting to do for awhile, which is why they started with the Disagea VN I assume. That's why the fanbase is being so vocal about wanting this here. They were given a ray of hope.
