Perhaps the most interesting of the newly released games for this week is E.X. Troopers, Capcom’s spin-off game based on the Lost Planet series. The game sports a quirky, colourful and anime-esque style; the type we at Oprainfall usually are very fond of. However these sales make the chances of a possible localisation look very slim indeed, especially when considering Capcom’s previous statements about bringing the game to the west.

Overall this has been a rather slow week, with Animal Crossing topping the Media Create charts yet again (Though followed closely by Call of Duty: Black Ops II). This is most likely due to Japanese consumers getting ready for the Wii U launch on December 8. It will be interesting to see how the console fares over there in the east once it arrives. But until then, why don’t you check out Oprainfall’s “western” impressions of the system?
