I play a collectible miniatures game called HorrorClix. Recently, someone brought up the idea of figures based on Nazi occultism, and the thread quickly became very heated and controversial. I was one who supported the idea, since Nazi occultism has become a pretty established form of horror, but the thread proves that there would be a lot of people opposed to putting Hitler in a game. I definitely wouldn't mind it, but I could see the developer's possible concern. If the Japanese can handle having Hitler in a video game, then so can we. There will always be people that are opposed to something, doesn't mean we should avoid whatever the hell it is they're opposed to.

Wait, so Sony didn't deny Eternal Punishment, a 2D RPG, but they would have denied Innocent Sin because it's a 2D RPG? I was going to clarify about that in my post, but I didn't feel like it. Perhaps SCEA has a limit on how many niche games one can localize at any one time, and Atlus USA decided Eternal Punishment would be the most successful, and probably the easier of the two to localize, it also has the better battle system. Seems more likely than "lolz atlus didnt have th emoneyz" or "omfg hitlar". I honestly recall hearing something about companies and a limit on "niche" localizations. I'm not sure if Persona would count as a niche game, but I wouldn't doubt it.

Heh. I know that's a popular belief and that could have been part of it... but, Atlus didn't release Innocent Sin because they simply did not have the financial needs to release two very similar games. On the official Atlus USA website, before the release of Eternal Punishment in the U.S., it said: In the end, it's you the consumer, who will decide whether Persona 2: Innocent Sin will come out. So run down to your local EB and reserve your copy now! Hell, reserve 2 or 3 just to be sure! They could've localized if they wanted to, but they didn't. I'd imagine Innocent Sin would've been far more difficult to localize, as well. Also, SCEA most likely wouldn't have denied the game because of nazis or Hitler, they would've denied it because it's a 2DRPG, one that wouldn't appeal all that much to the masses. They denied the PSX version of Soul Hackers.

And now tell me what kind of games to do you like? Harvest Moon? Come on what a looser!!! Hey! are you out of friends? Ha ha ha ha!! or maybe why dont you go to play with your barbies. I will say this again: WHAT A LOOSER!! Harvest Moon? Ha ha ha ha!!! I'm sorry, was I supposed to be insulted or offended at your cliché, and pathetic excuse for a flame? Word to your mother: "looser" and "loser" are two completely different words. Learn English before you post on English forums. Pd: Can anyone please PM me Megaten heavens web? No. The last thing any forum needs is more idiots like you -- people who can't even form coherent sentences.
