Default Re: BioHazard 15th Anniversary BOX (e-capcom Limited Edition) PS3

Amazing collection and yet another "amazing" example of Japan's failed gaming industry policies. First they've done it with three RPGs on the Wii. Yes, they're coming to Europe, but still nothing for NA, which completely irrational. There's obvious demand (just check out the various forums, support blogs, etc.) and still they ignore their fans who are willing to PAY them??

Now they're releasing this only in Japan? Why? What's the justification now? "There probably won't be any demand"? Yes, precisely because there's no demand for Resident Evil we have RE movies, games, etc. here in the west. :roll eyes:

Anyone remember Demon's Souls marketing&release?

Demon's Souls favorable review scores made the fiscal performance of the game unique because of the lack of a supporting marketing campaign. Gaming analyst Jesse Divnich commented "Demon's Souls is probably one of the most statistically relevant games released in the gaming world as it helps answer an often asked question: how much would a high quality game sell if it was supported by no mass marketing, released by a little known publisher (no offense to Atlus), and was a new intellectual property.” With the critical and commercial success of the game, Sony Computer Entertainment VP of international software Yeonkyung Kim later admitted that it was a "mistake" to pass on the game, instead allowing Atlus to publish it, initially due to concerns over its difficulty and unusual design decisions.

sorry for my apparent rage, but I'm fed up with Japanese publishers and their policies.
