| Media coverage following news of Playism's Western Touhou release |

| Gamer251:
Following the release of the game(s) on Playism, I saw some comments on various articles that they were disappointed since it wasn't in English. I understand their pain, but it was never stated in the first place that it wouldn't be released in English (yet). But hey, it would be a lot easier to buy the games now~ I just hope ZUN covers the entire Windows Series. |

Admittedly, it's a fair one to make, but it might be affecting people's expectations. --- End quote --- Now I feel dumb for not paying closer attention. =P Still, a Touhou game released outside of Japan is nothing to scoff at, and I'll gladly support buying it...Once my Playism account is back up and running, that is. >w>;; |

TBH, I am quite disappointed. Like what it is said in the review, this Western release could have potentially brought Touhou popularity to another level. However, Playism just felt lazy and ported the game without translating anything, thus mostly defeating the purpose of localization. With this, it's like getting people only to know Touhou but they might not be interested cuz it is untranslated. I knew that they said that they aren't going to translate the game but it just felt really hollow. Oh well, guess I have to wait for the overall response from the players to see whether this was the right choice. |
