Just because the 15 or so hardcore gamers who own a Wii want the game does not mean it will make a lot of money.

Because mainsteam gamers were clamoring to play TG-16 games before the Wii came out, right?

Okay so you really don't have an argument, and you have no idea if Sin&Punishment is off-limits to NOA.

Castlevania 64 sucked ass, I'm talking about LoD.

Both were bad.

Wasn't Sin and Punishment like 99% translated before they decided to not release it in the US, I could have sworn I read that.

Shins right, they both sucked equally hard.

The original game has English voice acting.

...and you know for a fact that it isn't?

Take a look at what's been released on the VC and what's coming down the pike. How many import titles do you see? Has Nintendo ever even mentioned the possibility? I know it would be great if they did release S&P here, but it seems more like a pipe dream at the moment.

Nintendo might change its policy though. Remember when it said no one wanted to play online? Now it....ah wait, never mind.

NOA and treasure have both mentioned Sin and Punishment being on the VC for all the regions. I don't have the link, but I do remember that.

No they didn't.

The game would suck without the N64 controller too.

No they have not. There has been mention of it probably being on VC in Japan, but that's it. The game has English voice yes. But there's still a lot of text that needs to be translated before it would be released. Nintendo is not making the effort to translate shit. The only things they're putting up on VC is shit that they can quickly make a rom of and put up. Once again, they won't even put in the effort to add online play, why would they go through the effort of translating something?

Also it's worth mentioning that NOE has stated that Super Mario RPG will not be released on Euro VC BECAUSE it was never released in Europe. And that games already translated and good to go. Nintendo is only releasing games which have been previously released in each region.
