Nintendo explained the reasons for non-disclosure of the exclusive The Last Story Wii outside of Japan. "When we convert a game for the European market we have to do it for all languages," said a source Videogame Nintendo UK boss David Yarnton. "Right now we have many projects in the pipeline and the most important title, Kirby's Epic Yarn, will arrive in Europe in the first quarter of 2011." "If we add the 3DS, we have simply too much at stake." Nintendo has announced a few days ago that it had scheduled the release of Mistwalker's RPG in the West.
However in the future the company might reconsider Japan, suggests Yarnton: "We have published many RPGs in the UK. For us it is a growing market, never say never."
