Will be interesting to see if their purchase of Atlus changes things since SEGA were pretty good about having dual audio. iirc Resonance of Fate and Valkyria were dual audio. The last one (yakuza 4/dead souls) didn't even have an english dub in the first place!
Much to Kaito's delight.
I'm not going to expect too much from the Atlus thing though.

Is Sega not developing Valkyria Chronicles 4? I know that is a Tactical RPG, but I would assume we would see that released worldwide. I sure hope your post is not true.... :unsure:

Well, Valkyria Chronicles 3 didn't make it outside of Japan, so... Yeah, don't hold your breath. :(

They should just look around and see how many people are complaining about the lack of exports.

I think it was a bad choice to not bring VC 3 worldwide after VC 2 did quite well in sales outside of Japan. I think the biggest issue was that the PSP was practically dead at retail in most places other than Japan by the time VC 3 would have been translated and localized for each market. Square Enix has done the same thing by abandoning most of their PSP games that were late in the system's life.
