Which Older Games do you Wish CF Had Been Around to Localize?

Fansubbers generally don't have a problem with attaching a footnote with a paragraph of notes and explanations to every single sentence. Helpful as that sort of thing may be, it doesn't fly in a professional translation unless it's meant as educational material.

Well, you could always just omit them...then again people would be baffled by translation anyway.
"Wtf does this mean seriously wat".
On topic: Bahamut Lagoon. Oh god this.
This game is awesome (breeding dragons and sending them to fight ftw), but because of SNES ending its life at the time of Japanese release, Square decided to not localize it. Well, at least there's that fan translation.

Now i wish even more i'd understand japanese better as i'm really curious what they actually did with the lyrics of smoky thrill. But the fact it isn't translatable doesn't matter to me, i don't want it translated anyway ;) Leave my songs in japanese and give me the story in english. But as i said, i'm sure that's what CF would do anyway. Maybe write the subs (the subs are displayed during a performance) in romaji instead of japanese script, so you can sing along
TheOverlord:
Easy question.
The one game I want to learn japanese just to play: Samurai Spirits RPG.
MrMRA:
I dig cuteness, so I'll go with Madou Monogatari series, to name one. And the rest of the Atelier series, naturally. Good topic!

The funny thing is I actually meant this thread to be about which games that -did- come out in America already would we have rather CF localized instead of the company that actually did, but this way works too.
Man CF should translate card games too. They could team up with Bushi Road and bring us Weiss Schwarz (plus the awesomely amazing PSP game version) and Precious Memories. And Vanguard.
