Feature 10 Nintendo Games We'd Love To See Finally Come To The West
Nintendo games that never officially left Japan
These days there are very few first-party or Nintendo-published titles that don't get an international release, but back in the day it was common for games to remain in their Japanese homeland for months or even years, if they ever came overseas at all. No, we're not just talking about the countless...

About The Game
10 years ago, five girls were captured and held hostage by a criminal in a mysterious house on Rougetsu Island, located south of Honshu.
They were eventually rescued by Choushiro Kirishima, a detective pursuing the criminal. Several years after the incident, two of the girls, Marie Shinomiya and Tomoe Nanamura, died mysteriously. The three remaining girls, Ruka Minazuki, Misaki Asou, and Madoka Tsukimori, all now 17 years old, return to the island to recover their lost memories and find out more about their kidnapping. Choushiro follows the girls at the request of Ruka's mother, Sayaka Minazuki.

Not releasing this outside of Japan seems a strange decision, especially when Nintendo are claiming that they want to bring more adult/hardcore gaming to the Wii. We can only hope that if the upcoming slew of survival horror games for the Wii are a success, Nintendo will change their minds.
Come to the U.S....
I'm still furious Nintendo of America decided against publishing it for us the patches don't work all I want to do is play a game from my favorite franchise is that to much for any American fatal frame fan to ask?
