Square files trademark for "Collection of Mana" (UPDATE: Now Trademarked in EU and US)
- Thread starter KoolAid
- Start date
I am going to preemptively lose my shit now. the SNES manas, both on console and on emulator, made me a non-casual gamer and brought me back later in life. They are like RPG versions of a hug for me.
I have put off importing it for too long. I honestly should give up on a translation/localisation. Somehow I keep convincing myself that Square-Enix will announce a Western release at the next big gaming event, then the next one and so on.
Honestly, this is exactly what I'm expecting. They already released the originals in Japan on the Switch, so some new trademark there wouldn't make sense?
Honestly, since they won't translate 3, I'd more than settle for evermore in its place.
That makes a lot of sense, the music is AMAZING:
Dat SNES sample work:
I'll believe in an official Seiken Densetsu 3/Secret of Mana 2 English release when I have it in my hands.
Square Enix burned me with the no-show that was the Switch collection outside Japan. I won't get dragged into this disappointing spiral of hope & crushed dreams again. :'(
Even if they bring THIS collection outside Japan, it'll probably just be the games that already have an English localization and they'll exclude SD3/SOM2.

Change the in-game fonts to Helvetica and jack up the input lag, and it just might hit #1 on the Switch eShop.
Normally I'd join in on the jesting, but this collection (at least the original Japanese Switch release as we know it) was made by M2... So I'd expect it to be a proper quality product (and an actual localisation of the original SNES ROM - ALA their work on Monster World 4 on Virtual Console!)
But the collection is already out in Japan, so is it new stuff ?
Also I still expect the 3d remake of seiken 2 to show up on switch, so maybe it will be part if this collection. Maybe children of mana too.
So far nothing seems to point at a western release of the original collection, does it ?

Seiken 3 and Legend of Mana would make me get it. I never really tried the series out but those are the ones that really haven't aged a day.
