    Most the games you mentioned are just the international versions of games that are released for the countries who don't get their own special priviledged releases like Japan and North America.

    Really though most of the games are just that. International releases that Americans don't get because we got an earlier release.

    As far as Dragon Quest, it's far more popular in Japan than in America. Itadaki Street Special is the only one on there that I would really want, and I am not quite sure why it isn't seeing an American release. I assume it's because they don't think it would be profitable.

    It's for the same reason that Capcom doesn't want to release a Street Fighter vs. Time Killers dating sim.

    International games never get released in America. That is because of it's name. I think they call it that because it is the american version played in other countries. The other games, I dunno...

    I love too see Americans complain for games that they cant have, those games arent even worth buying. And you think you got bad, Europe gets nothing, you should be lucky to live in America.....

    I dunno. That'd be cool if we could have it, though. Why don't we send a letter to SE and ask them that?

    The Itadaki Street games have never been released outside of Japan.

    Not at all. It usually means "everything that the American version had and a ton more." The only instance I can recall where we didn't get screwed out of the best version of a game is Star Ocean III; since the Director's Cut version came out in Japan before the game was released in America, we got all the extra stuff that it included.

    Not worth buying? I'd buy FFX international in a heart beat if my ps2 would play it, americans dont get dark aeons, which is ALOT more than "not worth buying" considering those ultra bosses take alot of time, not to mention penance. As for the rest, I really dont care about, but americans not getting dark aeons in a game where you can upgrade and do so much, almost invincible, yet there is still bosses that would cause you problems and we dont get it, is quite unfair imo.

    They could release the international ones here with Japanese instead of the english, and just put all the extra stuff in there, except Japanese with subtitles. Since I used to see alot of complaining for the Japanese versions at other places, and you still get all the extras that came with the International release, that would probably sell.

    I dont care if the voice actors were robots made from a single person recording on a computer, I just want those dark aeons.

    Actually, the International version of FFX released in Europe had English dialogue, and KH Final Mix had at least some English that I've heard.
