Square Enix's 'Bravely Default' to come to US and Europe

I also need this. Thank God my brother has a 3DS.

I will be playing the trout out of this when it comes out.

Bravely Default?

How do they come up with the name of their games as of recent

Square Enix does not seem to pander towards Western audiences when they choose the name for some of their games. Bravely Default and Dream Drop Distance sound like they might be perceived as fairly fashionable if you don't speak English at all. Dream Drop Distance at least has some alliteration.

The name is a little strange, but I like the graphics so I'm probably going to pick it up when I buy a 3DS.

I still don't comprehend what madness would compel someone to title a game 358/2

I assumed it was trying to create a name that cleverly sounds like Final Fantasy.

Doesn't that game tell the story from different perspectives that are split? Would make sense. (I've never played the game, so I don't know for sure if that's what the story is).

What I don't get is that it's written 358/2 Days, and yet they call it 358 Days Over 2.

[Polnareff]

I know this is late, but it's called Bravely Default because of two of the mechanics during battles, Brave and Default.

Not sure I should mention this here, but the original title of the game had a HUGE spoiler hidden within it, so I'm guessing that's why they shortened the title.
