Fatal Frame IV won't be released outside Japan. So that's the end of that, right?
Not according to a group of dedicated fans at cameraslens.com. They are working on a legal translation patch that will bring the game to Wiis around the world. The project seeks to translate Fatal Frame IV as you're playing it via an SD card. You won't even need a Japanese Wii to play it.

Here is a trailer showing the translation patch in action...



The project is almost complete and is set to be finished by the end of the Summer.

As previously mentioned, there is a Fatal Frame IV Patch Project being worked on. The Patch would require fans to purchase the game (because face it, even if Tecmo is responsible for FFIV not making it overseas, they did create a survival horror series we all love and cherish, and we WANT them to make more of them!), but would be run so fans would be able to read subtitles, notes, and files in english as opposed to Japanese.

More information on the Patch, how to help, what's it about, questions, etc can be found here.
