Operation Rainfall - What is Nintendo Afraid Of?

[VoreTechz1985]

Xenoblade is coming to North America in April 2012! VICTORY IS OURS! But this is only a partial victory. We need to keep pushing for The Last Story and Pandora's Tower!!!!! GJ OF!

[deadlyNytshayd]

Nintendo need to forget about past success of 80s/90s and make up for lost ground by pulling their thumbs out their asses and bringing back the magic that gave them the reputation as market leaders of video gaming entertainment

[HalifaxHercules]

Best policy is to force Nintendo of America to fire Reggie Fils-Aime and replace him with a CEO whom understands the gaming market.

Since Reggie Fils-Aime doesn't have an Information Technology, Gaming, or Computer Science background usually required to run gaming or tech companies, I don't understand why he was hired as Nintendo of America's CEO in the first place.

That's the same as having a person teach Karate if he/she has no background or knowledge of it.

I checked out that game fragile dreams and marumasa the demon blade. They were great to me! We could use some more of that.

[ShadowWolfRising]

its being released in Europe, Australia, Oceania, and South Africa

high amount of pre orders

good sign?

[michaeljacksoned]

My only complaint about Xenoblade is that most of the video of the game is just running across the landscape (which is pretty cool, in terms of size, I guess). It took some searching to find a video with some fighting in it.

[Frankwest211]

what is the second song called?



[ShadowWolfRising]

@Frankwest211

it says in the description (Reptile's theme)

[ChaosOfWar100]

Funny how every game here sold better in NA and EU then Japan...

[Atma01]

I already want to buy 2 copies of Xenoblade (1 for me and 1 for my girlfriend) and I may consider buying another copy for my little brother. From what I have heard, Pandora's Tower has the best story of the three. If that's true, I definitely need to buy it. Wtf are you doing to me Nintendo? Don't toy with my gaming emotions. Release those damn games in N.A.!

[AndrozzSenpai]

Please someone send this to NoA NOW!

[darkstriker00]

So NOA can't even use the "these games don't sell well in U.S." excuse. Seriously it isn't like we are drowning in games on the Wii right now. Why not put on hold the umpteenth fitness/minigame compilation and give something the fans will actually enjoy.

[michaeljacksoned]

Wow... My drunk mind quite enjoyed that.



[msanis88]

Very good video for the cause of Operation Rainfall! Its true, these games have a bigger market here than they do even in Japan! It'd be a shame if Nintendo ignored a profitable portion of its fanbase.

[seik666]

Those three game entirely deserves to be released here, what's happening with NoA is all plain illogical...

[RucuryBeans]

You are the reason we are getting these games! THANK YOU! lol!!

[DandDRawks]

@RucuryBeans I know, I know. Bow before me.

[ColumbiaStudioes]

dude great video! only if noa could see this...

[BrunoAtticusfinch]

The ironic thing is, that these "Niche" games are what gamers will remember the wii for when all is said and done -

Okami, Muramasa,Fragile Dreams, sin and punishment, Zack and wiki, Just to name a few.

Appart from the big first party titles,the niche titles make up most of the wii's BEST games.

Operation Rainfall FTW!

[Keeane]

That was.....KINDA AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hestar]

Great Video you guys have my support!...Why nintendo bring the games over is beyond me..Btw,I love fragile dreams and bought that bitch day 1 :).

[OdinM1]

I think it is safe to say NoA is being run by insipid fuckwits at this point.

[chadboban]

Best Operation Rainfall video yet!!!

[DandDRawks]

@chadboban :-) Thanks.

[BTscryforattention]

yes, these games just need better marketing. they will sell!

[FernaMedel]

awesome really liked it, and finally a song I could enjoy on an OPRF video



[Knowledgeseeker]

I guess I am the first Youtube viewer.

Nintendo really has nothing to be afraid of. Most of the localization costs have been taken care of by NOE and niche titles are capable of selling and there are plenty of companies that make their living off catering to gamers with niche titles, such as Atlus, XSEED, and NIS America.

With proper marketing, the big three can easily sell well in North America.

Nice video!! ^^
