Yakuza Ishin localization is "under consideration" by SEGA

[Son of Sparda]

 

[Dest]

HOLY FUCK THAT'S THE NEWS
THAT'S THE FUCKING NEWS

 

[Lashley]

I need it.

 

[Danthrax]

Yakuza news is out of control today

BTW yes Sega give us fucking Ishin, it's Kiryu as a samurai, IT'S APPEALING

 

[FFWarrior005]

Please do it Sega. It does appeal to those of us in the West.

 

[DrScruffleton]

OH MY GOD

 

[Vic Damone Jr.]

Just do it already dammit. Y'all gonna take so long it's gonna feel outdated as fuck.

 

[chandoog]

Sega, my purchase is not under consideration. It is guaranteed.

 

[Biteren]

yes pls

thats the second one i want the most

 

[Viale]

I'd fucking love to play as samurai kiryu. Give it to me.

 

[Curler]

:o Aw c'mon though, we are far past the "will the west like this Japanese thing?" I mean, it's kept Koei-Tecmo in business for a while...

 

[Eros]

 

[Cess007]

not sure if the setting would appeal to the Western audience

It fucking does!

 

[Fjordson]

Holy shit. Please, please, please let this happen. We love samurais bruh.

 

[Weiss]

Blessed Sega.

 

[Chaserjoey]

Hey Sega and Capcom, locations don't matter to the fans. Let us have Yakuza and Ace Attorney games set in different time periods!

 

[sensui-tomo]

yes. gimme, gimme gimme gimmie !

 

[TheRuralJuror]

I'd buy it asap

 

[Kalor]

Do that and they'll be caught up. I can live without Kenzan or Black Panther.

 

[Deleted member 1839]

well
Well
WELL

 

[Acquiescence]

"one reason mentioned for the hesitation is that they are not sure if the setting would appeal to the Western audience"

Nioh
Sekiro
Ghost of Tsushima

It appeals yo. We love that shit.

 

[Deleted member 17627]

THE PROBABLITY IS NO LONG ZERO PERCENT

 

[Kain]

Don't fucking toy with me

 

[Mullet2000]

The dream

 

[Lord Vatek]

I'm pretty sure the samurai aesthetic appeals to Westerners more than our own stuff does.

 

[Zafir]

Yes please.

Then we just need a translation patch so I can play my imported Kenzan copy without having to use text guides on my pc.

 

[MykonosFan]

How do we get in contact with this man to tell him that we think this shit looks fucking awesome

 

[Fisty]

Sekiro just moved like 3 million copies and Ghost of Tsushima is one of the most anticipated games of 2020

Its fucking appealing, SEGA

 

[Danthrax]

"one reason mentioned for the hesitation is that they are not sure if the setting would appeal to the Western audience"

Nioh
Sekiro
Ghost of Tsushima

It appeals yo. We love that shit.

Click to shrink...

this, seriously

samurais are in

 

[ghibli99]

The setting's appeal is what's holding them back? C'MON NOW.

It fucking does!

Click to shrink...

LMAO

 

[IronicSonic]

Is appealing to Yakuza fans. What else do you need Sega!!

 

[Chivalry]

For all that's holy, Sega, translate it already! I want to die happy.

 

[EmptyWarren]

Do it! Then bring Kazuma's ancestor to late 1800s Wild West America. Red Dead Rya Ga Gotoku.

 

[Tohsaka]

Nioh and Sekiro sold millions of copies, I'm pretty sure the setting appeals to westerners.

 

[Deleted member 15428]

Wake me up when they're actually doing it

 

[ackl]

No need to think about it, JUST DO IT!!!!

 

[kurahador]

Just fucking do it!!!!!

 

[Derachi]

I am usually the first to say that petitions don't work

But maybe we should put together a petition???? Just to show that the demand exists

 

[dmix90]

Fucking DO IT, please!

 

[Delaney]

They could strike lightning in a bottle if the release coincides with the marketing cycle for Nioh 2 and Ghost of Tsushima. I believe that's what they are waiting for.

 

[Yasumi]

Give it to me. Give me all of the J-drama.

 

[ASilentProtagonist]

Please!

 

[Yu Narukami]

Is this the one based on Y3 engine?

 

[Truly Gargantuan]

How the fuck do they not know that people are into that samurai shit?
HOW SWAY

 

[XaviConcept]

Thats a world class dumb reason to not do it. In 2019 and after how many movies, animes, books, games, TOURISM can anybody say with a straight face if they are unsure SAMURAIS sell to a western audience.

 

[TronLight]

COME ON DO IT YOU MAD LADS COME ON

 

[nightstalker962]

JUST DO IT

 

[Oreiller]

Just fucking do it!

 

[shadowman16]

I mean, in this day and age I can't see how it wouldn't at least interest a small subset of people. I'd totally be down with it getting released. I've played the import, I love the import. That's all there is too it!

 

[Foffy]

A game series where people love the Japanese dub...

But a game set in an older Japanese setting is a bridge too far? Pffffft.

 

[KaCo]

Do it, I want more Yakuza, especially the samurai games. Was really sad that we were missing out on those titles.
