Marvelous' Yasuhiro Wada Speaks: Localization, WiiWare, and Oboro Muramasa Youtouden

Akira_EX | July 23, 2008 | News | Wii DS

Siliconera's Spencer Yip had the chance to chat with Marvelous Interactive's president Yasuhiro Wada about the company's co-publishing deal with XSEED Games, and other topics.

Notables:

Lux Pain, Suda 51's Flower, Sun, and Rain, Rainy Woods, and Arc Rise Fantasia to be localized for North America.
Marvelous is currently working on an original WiiWare title.
All Harvest Moon titles that don't sport the Harvest Moon name will fall be handled by Marvelous
Vanillaware's Oboro Muramasa Youtouden is not dead; will be at TGS
Marvelous USA and XSEED will handle the localization for any new games from Grasshopper.

The partnership between Marvelous USA and XSEED was an unprecedented announcement that opened doors for domestic releases of RPGs like Avalon Code and creative games such as Little King's Story. However, Atlus is localizing Luminous Arc 2 and Natsume still has Harvest Moon. What’s going on here? I spoke with Yasuhiro Wada, President of Marvelous Interactive in Japan, to find out. We begun the interview discussing how the relationship between the two companies started and closed with a glimpse of the future.

Best news of the day/week. These are going to be some awesome games. I can't wait for Arc Rise Fantasia and Oboro.

Flower, Sun, and Rain should be great too.
