Welcome to Gamer School, a nostalgic look back at one of the gaming industries most beloved IP or developers. In our first entry, you'll be joined by our host, Paul James as he takes you through the long history of Seiken Densetsu.
The classic JRPG Seiken Densetsu 3 is a getting a full-on remake in the form of Trials of Mana, as well as a collection of the original three Seiken Densetsu games.
The “Collection of Mana” trademark sounds like it could be the western title for the Seiken Densetsu Collection, the oddity would be that that the trademark for the collection name itself comes from Japan and not Square Enix’s western branches.
VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "Over the years there have been countless great and interesting games made in Japan that have unfortunately never made their way overseas, to either Europe or North America. The reasons behind the decision not to release them in the west can vary wildly, from lack of proper localization channels or funds, to things like perceived lack of interest towards the titles in the west.
With that in mind, let's take a look at what I consider to be the most notable examples of games that have never been released outside of Japan, at least not in any official capacity. Naturally there are a lot more than ten to choose from, so many acclaimed and interesting titles have had to be left off the list and, of course, there's always the possibility that some of the games listed below do eventually make their way overseas, but at the time of writing they're still exclusive to Japan."
