Indeed. I mean, if they had released one Dai Gyakuten game and then found out they couldn't localize it due to the Sherlock license or something, ok that's unfortunate but somewhat acceptable I guess, but for them to then actually decide to develop a second game that won't make it over either is a big, big slap in the face of AA fans in the West. Why greenlight such a sequel in the first place as a global company (that prides itelf on its loyal global fanbase), especially within a series that already has such a troubled Western release history (with digital releases only for many of the games and no AAI2 localization either after the first one did make it over)?!
I was just listening to Giant Bomb's third E3 night where they had Capcom community manager Tim Turi on telling Jeff that he is always listening and looking for fan feedback. I have to wonder what good that does, and what his role is worth in general, if a single old man from the Japanese side of Capcom can just do someting like taking down a fansub channel that pisses off all AA fans here in one fell swoop. (Same goes for the absence of Switch announcements even for retro games heavily tied to Nintendo consoles historically.)
