Yeah, if you don't want to understand a single thing about 3. Hell, one of the main characters in 3 is the main character of 1.

By hoping really hard that it gets localized. Considering Bill Trinnen and Tecmo's US account tweeted about it, and there's a FF movie coming out, it seems somewhat likely.
>>
>>254570556
Will they censor this game?
>>
>>254573765
Does not releasing it outside Japan count as censorship?
>>
>>254573765
Why would you censor a horror game?
>>
>>254573849
Not really

>>254574256
Western Cultural differences?
>>
>>254574256
They censored project zero 2 wii by removing all the bikini costumes
>>
>>254574256
Every single Fatal Frame has been censored in some way for the West.
>>
>>254573765
They will most likely just remove lewd outfits.
>>
>>254574720
What did they censor in the first 3?

>>254575087
Removed costumes. Ages were changed. Miku's outfit was completely redone.

Why not just change age? I understand not putting anything lewd in a minor, but after changing ages that's kinda irrelevant

>>254575532
That's what i thought was stupid about ff2 wii. They made the characters a few years older looking (not sure about story ages) and still removed the costumes. And there weren't that many to begin with so in the end there's only the kimonos and the mario/luigi ones.

I'm actually the opposite. I'd buy a Wii U for Fatal Frame alone. Heck, I'd buy a fucking Ouya for Fatal Frame.

Buy a Jap copy and use the fanmade English patch. It overrides region lock so you don't even have to hack your Wii.
>>
>>254576880
The Wii U already has an ODE. Breaking region lock is just a short ways away.

It's the only thing I'd get a wii u for. And I've never bought a console for one game.

So what's up with this picture? Why is he hugging that trophy? I didn't watch the world cup.

when are we getting a new direct anyway?
>>
>>254570556
I'm hype for fatal frame on WiiU because that's what the console was designed for. Literally no other game has a reason to exist on WiiU, and no other console has a right to have Fatal Frame.

Also she makes my penis feel itchy in a good way.

Never played one, but I have played DreadOut which was pretty fun and really unique.
Is Fatal Frame similar?

Yes, but they do have a working, released ODE for PS3.
>>
>>254577416
better
>>
>>254577416
DreadOut is just a cheap knock off of Fatal Frame. If you liked that you'll love Fatal Frame.
>>
Play Fatal Frame 4.

I think it was the best of the series. Although I have yet to play the Wii version of Fatal Frame 2.
But I really enjoyed 4's story, It was realy good trying to find out the mistery of the missing girls and trying to play it in a detective(ly) manner

I'd say it's better than the original FF2 as long as you can stand the controls.

If you're hype for 5, don't be. It's likely to be Japan only. I hope you can read moon and imported a Wii U.

>>254577165

Old guy that goes to almost every World Cup wearing a Gaucho hat and carrying around a trophy he made himself. This is him watching the Brazil vs. Germany game (the one where Germany stomped 7-1).

That said, he cheered up afterwards and gave the cup to a qt German fan and said he'd be rooting for them.
>>
>>254578147
Awe.

>>254578036

I dunno. Tecmo Koei is actually really good about localizing their niche games, now. I wouldn't be surprised if Fatal Frame finds it's way over here.

Right. They haven't even started preproduction. In the 2 years it'll take to shoot the movie, do you REALLY think the Wii U will still be a thing?
For the record Nintendo has NOTHING to do with the movie. Kadokawa are funding it.
>>

Reggie hasn't said shit about FFV.

>>254578851
I was talking about 4, which he then said the same thing for 2. NoA will not localize this unless Iwata becoming CEO changed things drastically.
>>
>>254578576
I honestly didn't mind the British VA. I didn't mind hearing the characters speak English in the original 3, why would British accents suddenly be game breaking?
>>
>>254578850
I read that the Japanese version of the movie had nothing to do with the game's story. No old mansions, just a teenager dorm with ghosts.
Hope they don't do that
>>
>>254578850
It's a sign Kadokawa at least has plans for the franchise in the west. I wouldn't be surprised if they'd been pushing Nintendo for a localization.

And Nintendo did localize Spirit Camera.
>>
>>254578996
I think that they are TOO british. Imagine if they gave them a scottish accent, it would throw the ambience out to the shit. They would sound like Vikings or dwarves
>>
>>254578145
To be fair 1 was pretty shit
>>
>>254579180
Kadokawa, yes. Nintendo, no. We can only pray that Nintendo doesn't have publishing rights.

>>254578981
>NoA will not localize this unless Iwata becoming CEO changed things drastically.
A change of CEO does often make a difference, yes. It seems they've been more on the ball with localizations this gen.
>>
>>254578996
Because they're Japanese and they sound like they're having tea over by Big Ben. Fucking Forbidden Siren all over again.

Not really, no. There are a few Wii U games that are Japan only and the thing only has like 5 games with text in them at all to begin with.

Fatal Frame series is my favorite survival horror series of all time. Play them. Play them in release order.

Best version of Fatal Frame 1 is on original Xbox. This used to be true for 2 too, but I don't know how the recent remake on WiiU has changed things. 3 is only on PS2. 4 is only on Wii, and you need to mod it to apply an unofficial translation patch.

The above bullshit is my least favorite part of the series. Fuck games where every installment is on a different platform. FF is super good though.

>>254572028
Worst advice.
>>
>>254580435
>FF2 remake on WiiU

It's on the Wii
>>
>>254579659
The Wii U is the best console to play it. In fact before the WIi U existed the concept of a gamepad was the best way to play a game like this.
>>
>>254580639
TBH the entire series should be re released for wiiu
>>
>>254579591
>Hell even fucking Dragon Quest X didn't get localized.
afaik Nintendo was never involved with that game, though. That's different from them not localizing shit like captain rainbow or the first tomodachi game.

And don't forget, Spirit Camera.
>>
>>254580639
I wish they had waited and remade that on the Wii U instead. The Wii version has surprisingly great graphics, though.

I wouldn't go that far, but it certainly seems like one of the few franchises that would actually have a use for that stupid tablet screen.

>>254580835

The entire series should be released on PC. Or fucking SOMETHING. Right now, if you want to experience the entire Fatal Frame series (best versions of each game), you need four different consoles. That's nuts.
>>
>>254574674
>They censored project zero 2 wii by removing all the bikini costumes

Though to be fair, it would diminish the horror aspect if those were kept
>>
>>254576978
Wow, that's awfully convenient.
>>
>>254581136
They're bonus costumes you get after beating the game. By that logic they should've removed the Mario & Luigi clothes too.
>>
>>254581136
Why would it? It's not like you can get the other costumes on your first playthrough anyway. And you can't say playing as mario "diminishes the horror" less then a bikini costume.
>>
>>254580664
>The Wii U is the best console to play it

Even if that's true, WiiU has fuck all for other games, and I'm not exactly thrilled at the prospect of having to buy a new console for just this and Bayonetta 2.
>>
>>254581091
Theoretically just Xbox and Wii u.
>>
>>254578996
Because they're fucking chavs that can't even get the tone of the line delivery correct. It's fucking horrible.

Listen to their voices and compare it to the JP or the FF2 PS2 dub, it's completely different in every way.
>>
>>254581136
>diminish the horror aspect

I would actually say the bikini outifts on the ten-year-old main characters were creepier than any of the ghosts in the game.

I loved the DOA cosplay outfits though. Made them look like they wandered into the haunted village on their way home from Comiket.
>>
>>254581528

Fatal Frame 3 is only on PS2. Fatal Frame 4 is only on Wii, and WiiU isn't backwards compatible to my knowledge.
>>

But that added some new costumes for 4.

What? It is.
>>
>>254581301
>>254581269
The actual reason is that the characters are lolis.
>>
>>254581819

Everything can be emulated so by that logic you only need a PC and a decade or so of time.
>>
>>254580908
The wii version of ff2 was also released in regions where it matters.
>NTSCfags will never ever play ff5
>>
>>254582001

WERE lolis. They aged them the fuck up in the remake. And still felt the need to remove the sexier costumes for some reason.
>>
>>254582010
It was a response to that anon Xbox can't be emulated and it has director cut of 1 and 2. Besides 5 you can pay the entire series on a pc.
>>
>>254581905
>>254581941
>>254581976

Really? I thought they got rid of that because only reason Wii was backwards compatible was because it was literally an overclocked Gamecube, and WiiU is actually new hardware.
>>
>>254582314
I guess Wii hardware is so cheap by now they can just throw it inside a Wii U without much of a price difference.
>>

You are right. The Wii U is just an overclocked Wii with a 3 core CPU though. It has native GC backwards compatibility too, Nintendo just locked it off. You can play GC games on it with homebrew.
>>
>>254582314
Then why do you think they would still use PowerPc architecture?
>>
>>254581649
Mio and Mayu were 15 in FF2. This is stated in FF3 when you pick up a news article about their disappearance.
>>
>>254582141
I thought they were still under 18 in the remake?
>>
>>254582562
what's the left version of them?

>>
6 days since no localization confirmation.
>>
>>254582705
Models from the PS2/Xbox version cutscenes.
>>
>>254582698

Under 18 != loli. Lolis are prepubescent girls.

In original Fatal Frame 2, the girls were YOUNG. Visually 12-13 at most. In the remake, they got aged to 15-16.
>>
>>254582684
>Mio and Mayu were 15 in FF2. This is stated in FF3 when you pick up a news article about their disappearance.

They looked a hell of a lot younger than that.

Easy point of comparison is Miku from FF1, who is 16 I believe, and looks WAY older than either Mio or Mayu did.
>>
>>254582979
Still doesn't change my point. Bikini outfits for underaged girls is a no-no in NA.
>>
>>254583230
>Easy point of comparison is Miku from FF1
Because they changed her fucking model in the English release.
>>
why is she dressed like a jrpg character
>>
>>254583328
How come they did it in original FF2 then?

>>254583364
The altered model is the "official" Miku though. It was reused for FF3, both in Japanese and US/EUR releases.
>>
>>254583230
They did look younger but they weren't. Also Miku only looked older because they changed her model to an adult. In the Japanese version she was like M&M. They changed her schoolgirl outfit to a more adult like one too. They thought westerners wouldn't sympathize with a Jap schoolgirl so she got changed.
>>
>>254583328
Honesty, I find that rule stupid because the Japs could just say that a loli is over 18 and then it's ok to sexualize the fuck out of her as much as she deserves.
>>
>>254583550
No shit. She fucking AGED in between 1 and 3.
>>
>>254583550
>How come they did it in original FF2 then?
We aren't in the 90s/00s anymore anon.

>>254583564
Loli is retarded since Japs get through with a loophole. Loli should be based on appearance, not stated age.
>>
>>254583550
3 is several years after 1, but only a few months after 2.
>>
>>254583471

Gotta find new ways to make her look different from all the other girls with short black hair in this series.

In FF4 the only way I could keep track of the characters was to memorize the colors of their skirts.
>>
>>254570556
So I don't understand the condition of Fatal Frame IP. Is it really Nintendo only IP now? FF123 all got released to the PS2 and I thought Fatal Frame is owned by Tecmo

Did Nintendo paid for this one like they did with Bayo 2 or did Ninty buy the IP entirely?
>>
I'm still surprised by how good it looks. I hope it gets localized.
>>
>>254583674
Loli's ARE based on appearance, which is why the1000 year old loli is a possibility.
>>
>>254583856
Nintendo own the publishing rights on a game by game basis.

>>254583760
The girls all have different tops as well. One is even a transparent shirt.

>>
>>254583856
If I understood correctly, they simply own the rights to every Fatal Frame game that gets released on a Nintendo platform. Basically 4, 2 Wii Edition and 5 will NEVER EVER come out on any other platform but Tecmo can do whatever the fuck they want with the original 3.

If anything, that stuff was really loose because it wasn't widespread. There's been tons of refinements to the ESRB in the past decade.

I'm sorry? SJW will be up in arms if a game portrays underaged girls in a 'provocative' way. Are you daft?

I've played a ton of horror games and they still managed to scare me here or there, either with ghost movement patterns or creative atmosphere.

Fuck those ghosts that manage to do it. God damn, I hate the ones that crawl or act all jittery. Same in Haunting Ground with the old man, shit was creepy.

No, my point is that Miku when she was stated to be 16 looked like 6 years older than the twins when they were stated to be 15. It doesn't matter when the games happen.

The renders in >>254582562 don't do proper justice to how young their ingame models looked. I would have pegged them at about ten years old, 12 at most.

No, 3 is fucking amazing. Third Fatal Frame is mechanics-wise the best game in the series, has the most interesting premise (this time the mansion exists only in your dreams, you move in the dream-mansion at nights and research it in real world during daytime, it's an awesome twist). The biggest flaw in 3 compared to other games in the series is that it's only on PS2, which means long-ass load times and other nuisances.

One can argue that 2 is scarier or 1 is purer in concept, and it's a fair argument, but 3 is extremely good and extremely close to them. And one can also argue that 3 is plain best game in the series.

4 is the "bad" Fatal Frame, and even 4 is pretty good. All FF games rock.

No, I stated that the OFFICIAL MODEL FOR MIKU from FF1 looked older. That is the only model for Miku that is canonical, the devs have actually erased the black-haired Japan-only FF1 version from canon (and she didn't just look younger, she looked like a different character). They reused that model in FF3 because they were lazy, not because she has magically not aged a day in three years.

The 3rd game by far the best in the series mechanically and I think the story was just as good as the second game's. FF2 was just really popular when it came out and it's pretty much the only one anybody played outside of original fans.

One weakness 3 has is that it has probably the most confusing story of all FF games. 1 and 2 were pretty straightforward with their plots, but 3 has so many overlapping evil rituals and curses and on top of that references to earlier games that it's bound to leave people feeling lost.

Also I think 3 missed a huge opportunity by tying itself to too tightly to the "numbered linear chapters" format of the previous games. The game had a great setup for a freeroaming horror game - just let the player explore the mansion at his own pace and decide for himself when he wants to wake up. You have the tattoo curse that spreads on your body every time you sleep, so that's your time limit pressing on you, but you also need to wake up to refresh your health and research the photos you took in your dreams, so you have to balance your sleep. It could have been something truly unique.

Instead they took the safe route, and the game is strictly linear despite looking like you can explore. A pity. Still good, but a pity.
>>
>>254587609
It's pretty standard Japanese horror. Feels really similar to Fatal Frame in atmosphere. More like Silent Hill in the combat. Using the knife anyways. You also have magic and prayer.

Yes and no. If you can't play 1 and 2 easily, 4 is a good place to start. It's pretty much unanimously agreed to be the worst in the series however and plays nothing like 1-3.

Yes. Extremely.
Play them in order, mainly because you sort of have to if you want to fully enjoy 3.

Buy or emulate 1. Emulation must be in software mode and then you have the final boss issues which you can look up. Fatal Frame 1 DOES NOT WORK on OPL because it crashes when you pick up the first item. I never tested if you could pick up the item, save, and then transfer the file to the PS2 because that might work and save you the trouble of the final boss problem.

2 is either. 3 is either. Check the PCSX2 wiki for setup, not a big deal for those.

4 is get the patch and emulate or put it on your Wii because lol JP only.

>>
>>254592203
I only really suggest it for 1 due to the issues in both emulation and on OPL, unless you don't mind dealing with the slight problem in the final boss (if you fuck up the emulator locks up, so you need to save state). It's a pretty unique game in the regard of it not working properly on either platform, but it might be possible to do what I said and avoid the item crash on OPL. I just never tested it.

I don't think I even have it on my HDD for my PS2 right now, and I really don't feel like setting up my enclosure for one game.

Does /v/ actually have this many Fatal Frame fans, or is it just people clinging to another Wii U game? I never see this game discussed. Ever.
>>
>>254597381
They aren't that vocal, but we generally exist.

I'm a bigger fan of the Silent Hill series, but as a horror fan Fatal Frame is pretty high up there. The creators know what they are doing and the girls always have cute outfits.

There's a number of die hard fans around. Not many of the younger /v/irgins would have ever heard of it though.

That was the moment I started taking everything he says with a heavy mound of salt. Guy is nothing more than a suit and people think he's so legit. Yes I am still mad at the lengths I had to go to play that game.

Why the fuck is the first game so much money?
>>
>>254597683
I often wonder how much Reggie is actually in control of. Obviously since he's NoA and not main Nintendo that limits his shit, but he's used so often as a figurehead for marketing I often just imagine all he does is work on is marketing rather than anything else.
>>

I've loved the series since it came out, but it never hit the popularity or exposure level that RE and SH did so there are just less fans in general.

You don't have to hate the game to see it, after RE4 everyone went full combat crazy. Now we have faggots on /v/ who actually think Dead Space is a horror game.
>>
>>254598539
Dead Space is action horror. So is RE4.
>>
>>254598539
>Dead Space is a horror game
It's getting worst, people are saying that outlast is a good horror game, and even defending regen health
>>
Let me see if I get this right, you all say the game is perfect for the Wii U because you're gonna point the remote at the TV screen and that would be like looking through the camera?

So you would be using the camera inside the Wii U, wouldn't that be laggy as fuck?
>>
>>254598629
Action games with horror elements does not a horror genre make.
>>
>>254598539
Pretty much. I played that game so much when it came out and I still do at times. but I'm not going to deny the effect it had on one of my favorite genres.
>>
>>254598539
I think they can co-exist and I enjoy both to a degree. Adveture Horror and Action Horror have both redeeming qualities if done right.
>>
>>254598539
Dead Space is Action-Horror.
A lot of the classic RE game are Horror-Action. The emphasis got flipped in RE4 and then Capcom just went full action for the latter games, which was proven when they officially dropped the horror genre from the box.

It'll use the gyroscope in the gamepad.
>>
>>254598728
Wouldn't it just be that the typical Fatal Frame screen would just use the controller instead? You wouldn't use both the main screen and the controller in conjunction, just the controller screen while using the camera.

>>254598937
Good job arguing entirely on semantics. The whole point is that everyone makes those action games with light horror elements instead of survival horror games.

The creator of The Evil Within is actually billing it as a survival horror game too.

It's a grim fucking future when everyone thinks Amnesia and Outlast are the scariest games ever.
>>
>>254599120
I hope I don't have to physically spin around in circles to aim at ghosts, that would make my dizzy.

If it's using the gyroscope then maybe they'll have it so when you raise the controller from your lap to your face it'll activate the camera? Nintendo would probably love something like that.

pls stop. you dont know shit. how can a game ruin a full genre? if something, its Capcom's fault for trying to recreate the success of RE4 was and trying to pander to the western audience at the same time.
and yes RE turned to shit but what about SH? or Clock Tower, or Black Mirror and Alone in the Dark? how did RE4 exactly afected the quality of those series when some of then went to shit before RE4 released?

Good night, sweet princes.
>>
>>254599608
It's purely because Resident Evil opened up other game creators to make games more like it. Every "action horror" game borrows elements in abundance from RE4, you can't deny that connection.

>>254599558
I hope you just use the screen itself for camera mode and you have the option to use either gyroscope OR the controls like normal.

The thought that popped in to my head was you would raise it up to activate the camera, but then control it like you would in the PS2 versions. Also, the limited screen space on the gamepad doesn't really matter because even in the older games it was already limited to simulate the camera.

>>254600051
Sometimes you're tracking a ghost and it maneuvers around you in a single direction, so you keep following it and end up turned around. It wouldn't be a sudden 180 degree turn.

That's from Clock Tower, which died off after Haunting Ground. Except in Haunting Ground you could fight back, unlike Amnesia and all the others. I've only played First Fear, 3, and Haunting Ground so I don't know how it works in the other games for fighting back. It was pretty limited in First Fear and 3, but you could throw things and have Hewie attack in Haunting Ground.

Horror isn't a game genre. RE games have always been "full action" games, just they played like shit.

Not really. The game is obviously segmented between shootouts and horror sections, but there's later enemies than can scare you out of their sheer power, speed and invisibility.

And they do. That doesn't mean they can't lease it out to other people.

Literally the exact same thing happened with Xenoblade, Pandora's Tower, and The Last Story.

Xenoblade was developed by a nintendo in house Dev and gamestop offered to foot the production bill for exclusive distribution rights.

Pandora's tower and TLS were codeveloped by Nintendo in house devs and published by nitnedo in japan but Xseed in America.

All three are wholly owned by nintendo but they don't have nintendo as a publisher.

Fucking what? I was talking about FF5 since the beginning of the conversation.

Nintendo owns publishing and half the IP. Tecmo owns the other half. They got it in some weird deal with Tecmo.

They published EVERY game since the first wii game. If anyone wants to localize it, it has to go through them.

Why didn't they publish 4 and 2 DCB? There's your answer.

>>254614039
Exorcism.
>>
>>254614039
Cameras steal souls.
>>
>>254614127
Because no one cares about America?

Nintendo published them in Europe.

Japanese folklore. Captures their spirit.

>>254614428
They did, technically.
>>
>>254614291
for some reasons, i notice that lots of horror titles tend to just fucking skip NA and only released in EU. not just nintendo btw, some britbong on /v/ recommended a couple of horror games before and when i google them it turn out they were never released in NA
>>
>>254614537
Explain how they technically published 2 games in a region when only 1 was released. Do you even know what "published" means?
>>
>>254613650
>THE PEOPLE WHO OWN THE OTHER HALF
They still have to consult nintendo about it.
>>
>>254614586
meant to say couple of horror games on ps2
>>
>>254614431
>>254614537
I know they had commercials and advertisments, but there's no game and that's all that matters in the end.
>>
>>254614586
Was Siren 2 one of them?

>>254614648
You clearly don't it seems. They localized the game, and pulled it at the last minute, I don't know what you want from me.

>>254614704
There is a game, just that it's broken and they never bothered to sell it.
>>
>>254614879
>: to prepare and produce (a book, magazine, etc.) for sale
If it wasn't sold, it wasn't fucking published.
>>
>>254614879
>Was Siren 2 one of them?
yes
h-how did you know? are you horrorvidya?
>>
>>254615096
Not him, but your own definition says it's just preparation for that purpose. Actually being sold isn't a part it seems.
>>
>>254615267
The "ed" at the end makes it past tense, anon. He would be right assuming he said they were "publishING" it assuming it was never officially canceled. The game was never publishED.
>>
>>254615096
But they prepared and created the localization they just didn't ship the physical discs.

>>254615126
>h-how did you know
Because I'm an American who really likes Siren and is unhappy about the lack of that one getting released.

And about the lack of Fatal Frame releases for that matter.

It still hurts. It hurts so bad. I wanted Miku and Mafuyu to go on together. I'm sure there is a good reason, but god damn it still sucks

>>254616601
I doubt anybody has scanned it, much less translated it.

Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner.

Anyone feel like the only reason why there are so many ghosts in Fatal Frame is that either they died virgins when they were still living or didn't get the D enough?

Seriously, there needs to be a Ghost Rance game where you use your holy penis to get ghosts to climax back to the afterlife.

What do you expect?
I think that's the usual reaction to Fatal Frame.

>>254616972
ive watched i cant play, it shoots my nerves so fucking bad all of em do far. i fucking love the series and the stories behind the mansions and manors ect.
But i cannot fucking play horror games. This is like the one time im glad for LPs

God damn, Fatal Frame has the best waifus.

It isn't, just kind of disheartening that half this thread is talking about whether Fatal Frame girls are underage instead of the actual games.

Well, we came real close.
Funny thing about this scene; she's always wearing this outfit even if you selected a different costume. I think because it happens at night and you're in your nightgown, but she's in her normal attire for whatever reason.
>>
>>254616972
I never post in these threads, but usually lurk. I've played them.

>>254617843
It's Mio. Mayu doesn't have straps and also has a sleeveless top.
>>
>Bump limit
Oh no.
>>
>>254617856
man that fight woulda been interesting in the after math. i wonder what Rei would have thought or done
>>
>>254616972
I tried playing the first one but was disappointed at it's approach to horror enemies, I look through these threads hoping I'll get motivated to play through them.
>>
>>254617843

That wasn't half the thread, that was like 20 posts, and it was discussed by people who actually played the games.

>>254585559
>>254585823

Pure hipsterism.
>>
>>254618237
Probably have gone to the Other Side no matter what. Everyone would be dead but her at that point.

You know Kei surviving isn't canon. The good endings are never canon.
>>
>>254618648
I know
at least mio is finally with her sister and miku with her brother ;_;7
Poor Kei though. His biggest sin was being concerned
>>
>>254618843
I think Mio survives no matter what. By the time Kei dies/stays in a coma his actions are done. You briefly see Mio in the credits in Rei's/Miku's house.
>>
>>254619142
Aww fuck im going to have to rewatch this shit. Goddam it Fatal Frame, you can't just let me be happy can you
