Post Koei, anti-english?

Did someone offend them in some way for them to still not release things in English or is it pure selfishness?

Surely Koei has to realise that there is a bigger market out there for these products?

No.4 is now even coming to smartphones, but still only Japanese. sigh.

Daikoukai Jidai IV coming to smartphones in December in Japan

Yeah, I agree. This has been incredibly frustrating for all of us for years. I have no idea what they're thinking by simply ignoring English.

I would have thought that at least the steam releases would have supported English, but a lot of them don't at this time. There are a lot of Koei games I would like to play if they were in English.

Any information that I provide is based on the SNES version unless otherwise specified. I have thousands of hours into New Horizons and I have played it since it was released in the US on the SNES.

I actually own the Steam version of 1. I guess I can give a reason at least for them not supporting English (though truthfully it's.. not the best), it's the Japanese PC98 version being emulated. I still don't know why they wouldn't have released it with the DOS version as well with DOSBox though, considering there's already Steam games using it. Even just a toggle, could be a great way for people to find the games.

Chaoyun2k, you say you'd only play if in English? Sounds like so much for a little thing I was hoping. This here reminds me, I heard there was a cartridge version of UWNH that was released strictly in China, with 2 additional characters, 1 from India and 1 from China--never translated into English. I was hoping you're Chinese and speak Chinese, and thus might be able to get your hands on such a cartridge for me and understand it for me--and then tell me a capsuled description of the game-story of those 2 characters, and whether or not they start with a Dhow and a Junk instead of a Caravela Latina like the other 6.
