Former Team Ninja member Tomonobu Itagaki has strongly hinted on Facebook that we may see a localised version of Fatal Frame V for Wii U. It should be noted that Itagaki has no relation to the title, but he is friends with Kikuchi Keisuke. This should be taken as a rumour at present simply because Koei Tecmo has said that the game is for the Japanese audience only. However, Nintendo could step in and localise it.
“Hey guys, I strongly believe that Kikuchi Keisuke will release the Fatal Frame V in America, in many countries. He and me have same philosophy from Tecmo days. That’s what I can say for now. I want you guys to read between the lines.
Anyway I will play this game :)”.
Thanks, KillBill
I would love that… game looks like it would be well worth my time
anybody have any spare club nintendo codes. I really need them.
Awesome hope it does eventually. I find it ironic it became japanese exclusive when Nintendo acquired the rights
I hope so!
keep dreaming dipshit.
It’s localized. Local-ized. I can’t stand when it’s spelled localised.
It’s the native British spelling you dumbass… I can’t stand idiots.
Go eat a dick. I can’t stand penis munchers.
Uhhh…you’re one to talk. Learn proper English you little pansy.
Hey we americans talk different over here. The way I type is casual talk and not professional talk.
yet your critizing how people spell oh the hypocrites gotta love em ¦)
Here some dog food now scram
No the real English is localised. American English uses Zs
Just like idiotic Americans say Graham is pronounced “gram” it’s pronounced “grey-ham”
Or “grey-am” depending where in the UK you’re from
I know that. Someone here explain that to me once. I just don’t like that way it looks. I’ve even search the dictionary for it and couldn’t find it.
American dictionaries are retarded. They don’t have the proper spelling of the word rumour either.
Rumor? If so, than holy crap that word looks worse than localised. Rum-our is just wrong. Sorry to bash the way you guys spell but you’ll do the same if it was spelled in American English.
Soon you’ll have ‘Murica instead of America in dictionaries…
There will always be those of us in America (fuck yeah!) who cherish proper grammar and spelling. Unlike many de-evolved dialects, we’ll still speak proper. ;D
All the noisy people hog the lime-light. Making the rest of us look bad. As much as I want to join on the arguments, I feel that as an American; I should remain silent, and allow my stupid brethren room to frolic among my international acquaintances. Viva la North America.
Exactly. Like when I’m a Boss Ass Bitch was bitching about how localized is spelled with an s instead of a z in that one article on here. lol Sometimes it’s best to just keep quiet & let the little cubs fend for themselves.
I bet you go grammar-nazi irl as well, right?
I find ‘That’s what I can say for now’ the most interesting part of his statement. I hope there is as much to it as I am reading.
Reggie seemed open to the idea 2 years ago when a fan requested it, so it may eventually head over to the West:

PLEASE YES I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE
Though, we never got Fatal Frame 4 localized, and that was for a console that sold way more in its lifespan. So… I dunno.
I hope Tomonobu Itagaki is right because I need another horror game in my Wii U collection! With Crapcom not giving us Resident Evil Revelations 2 in the foreseeable future, we fucking need this! Hurry the fuck up, Nintendo, & localize it outside of Japan!
Hes on to something there cause between the lines is just a clue he would want us to think
And we now know that he was hinting to us that they were working on localizing it outside of Japan.
Ahora solo espero que no hagan lo que Nintendo hizo con Bayonetta 2 y solo liberen una cantidad mínima de copias del juego.
You’d think that Koei Tecmo would know that there are quite a few games out there that are “made only for the Japanese”, yet they go on to do well internationally.
Like the Musou/Warriors franchise. Sure they don’t go on to sell millions but they do still sell.
Please do. I’m not sure about how big the fan base is (especially in the west) , but it’s got my interest.
I’d like to ad this to my wii u library, very unique/interesting
If this game comes to the USA I hardly doubt it will sale well without some intense marketing. Don’t get me wrong or anything I’ll buy this day one I’m a horror fanatic. But I believe a game like this would serve well on the PS4, or if Nintendo would allow a camera similar to the ps4s or Xbox ones. Imagine seeing your own facing during this game on walls or if the game took your cellphone number and gave you a creepy call. Developers should look into using social media integration when it comes to horror games to give the player a more ideal sense of being scared.
Dude! I loved the cell call idea!… I’m crossing my fingers to be able to get this game soon.
Marketing the game would cost more than it would be worth. And “intensive marketing” would eat up any profit they would make of the game.
Best course of action, would be translate and release it eShop only, physical only if they think they can cover shipping.
You sure you want to see your stupid face randomly on the game?
Would kill a lot of tension if the camera took it at wrong time.
Phone call… kinda like it, but it is not really viable, unless it would utilize wlan. And that you would have to set up.
Well if it accessed your Facebook. And you had your number on Facebook it could give you a nice call or change your profile image.
As for the “stupid face” thing come on man. Trying to solve a mystery of a killer and eventually finding a photograph of said killer and its a picture of the user would be pretty intense.
Good ideas.
All I want is another survival horror game that’s as good as Resident Evil 4 was. I love that game SO much!
Fatal Frame 5 aka Project Zero V to Europe and US?
Oh please do! I have been fan of the series for years. Last year I saw trailer and ever since my fingers have been itching to get hold of it. There is dedicated fans here in the Europe and in the US too so please, please don´t let us down..
Release it physical and/or digital only, we will bite!
Release it with original voice tracks only, but with english subtitles and we will bite!
Amen to that. With subtitles, the game can be localized faster.
Yes! Please make it happen.
For the love of everything, YES.
Please! Yes! I’ve been dying to play this game again for years and seeing that it’s on the Wii U is a dream come true after the first time I heard it might be localized. This game would be great in my library.
Shut up and take my money!!
