FanCensus says: "Project Zero 2 Wii Edition is a fantastic remake of a genuinely terrifying game that’s sadly only let down by its need to shoehorn motion controls into the mix. Tame the handling however and you’ll find a truly memorable experience scarier than any Wii game before it that will more than cater to those craving a traditional horror title. Never has a game on the Wii made me so nervous loading up its disc."
NeoGAF poster TunaLover says he wrote a letter to Xseed, the small game company that brings Japanese games to North America.
He wanted to know if Xseed would release the Wii remake of Fatal Frame 2 in the United States.
Xseed could have ignored it. They could have responded with an automated "Thank you for writing!" letter. They could have written a boilerplate "We have no plans to blah blah blah." They could have said they don't comment on rumors or speculation.
Instead, as Barrera/TunaLover writes, Xseed vice president Ken Berry sent over a personal note.
Indeed, I've written Xseed several times and they've always been kind and have actually read my messages and responded courteously. They take time out to respond to you as a person, not as a dollar sign.
They are a small group of people who are legitimately passionate about great games. There are only a few companies that might cause me to try out genres I would otherwise be uninterested in (fishing, visual novels)but thanks to them I have broadened my tastes.
XSeed are a fantastic publisher. But being in Europe i hope that NOE continue to be so incredibly good to their patch. All the Project rainfall games were released by Nintendo in Europe.
It does seem odd that they don't unify more though. we could of had simultaneuous EU/US releases of all of them. Its not like they weren't being translated into ENglish,French and Spanish anyway.
For Halloween this year Meodia takes a look at the Wii game Project Zero 2 (Fatal Frame):
"This style with the sublime musical score and you end up with a real palpable sense of dread that manages to permeate throughout the game."
The scariest night of the year is now only two days away, a horrifying evening when strange children knock at the door and refuse to leave without a toll of sweets and candy. It's also the time of year when we willingly scare ourselves witless by playing frightening video games.
To finish off a week-long series of fond Wii remembrances, Nintendo Life wants to highlight some titles from the system's back-catalogue that are perfect for this time of year. It suggests turning out the lights, basking in the tiny blue glow of the Wii power switch and trying these titles this Halloween.
Nintendo is screw up, they can stick Wii up their arse. They can release this, why not release Project Zero Mask of the Lunar Eclipse on the western shore. One of the reason I sell my Wii.
I hope Sony do something with Project Zero titles.
