Unfortunately, we can't make that an option for Pram's Wish List. When we first launched the original, we localized a couple of titles based on huge "wish support" and they flopped. Due to the large amount of time, money, and effort it requires to localize games (not to mention the sometimes ridiculous difficulty of obtaining a license), we've decided it's too risky to use the Wish List for game requests.

This doesn't mean we're not interested in what you think we should bring over, however. We love to get feedback from our fans! So I'm going to open a Game Request forum where you can create polls or make suggestions. You're always welcome to send e-mails to our support mail, support@nisamerica.com, or use our contact form, as well.

I just hope people don't use that game request forum for anything that's out of your jurisdiction. I can already tell what people are going to be asking for. I'm not saying certain things aren't possible, but you do have to think about how hard a license is to get, and how well it would be received to audiences in the US and Europe. That's why when I see so many of these on the Atlus forums, it really makes me uneasy.

They know it's impossible, yet they still try.

That's a better answer than I expected. Usually, when a game company stops doing something, they go all in on it. It's good to know that you're still receptive to our input.

If I might inquire, what were those experimental titles? Unfortunately, my NISA library only extends back to Atelier Iris 1-3, Ar tonelico 1-2, and the three Disgaeas.

Don't quote me on this, but I think I remember reading somewhere that NISA didn't want to localize Rhapsody DS at first, but people asked for it so they did anyway. And... it kinda flopped.

Not sure if this is what they were referring to, but then again, your guess is as good as mine.

I know some games have already been suggested for localization in the feedback forum (some more likely then others), could it be possible to move those topics into the new one, or should we create them anew.

Probably Cross Edge as well, though I personally enjoy the game and want to see a sequel. But there was a lot of whiners/complainers about it.

Report them and I'll move them. I'll have some time to go through the posts later tonight (Pacific time) as well, if you don't mind waiting.

Okay, I think I got them all. I did include those that could be considered as "impossible" for the sake of being complete though.

Thanks, they should all be moved.

Just thought I'd let you all know the new Pram's Wish List is up. I had to fix a small bug that wasn't letting people vote/comment, but that shouldn't be a problem anymore. Let's see some wishes!

The new wish list looks very nice and clean, good job.

I must admit I did laugh at the Prinny Burger wish though XDD

Curses! I can't remember what my member ID and password are.

There isn't an option to retrieve this information either. :(

Isn't it the same one you're using right now?

Well it says that its separate from the forums member server.

It also doesn't help that when I try to register an account there I get told that my email address is already registered there. Finally, the only emails I find in my gmail account about NISA are the Prinny Bomb newsletters so I haven't got a message or anything confirming my account details from the looks of things.

You don't happen to use other passwords(that you might not remember off the top of your head), do you? Because I use a few different variations on one password, and I couldn't log in until I went through them, one at a time.

Is the password alphanumerical by any chance?
