Talk:Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse

Nintendo
With Nintendo serving as the publisher of Fatal Frame IV, there's a rumor going around that Nintendo may have actually bought the IP rights to the Fatal Frame series from Namco. Is there any way that this can be confirmed or denied, and if it is true, shouldn't it be added to the article?--75.92.186.211 (talk) 20:04, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

rating claim bias?
A line from the article was removed because of a claim of bias.

"Given the themes and content of the previous releases in the series (such as ritual sacrifice), the game is expected to be rated M for mature by the ESRB in the USA making it one of the few Wii games to be classified as such."

personally, I don't really think it hurts the article to cut that bit out, as it's pretty obvious that it won't be rated G, but how exactly was that line biased? Given that part two is frequently heralded as the scariest game of all time and portrays a storyline where one identical twin murders another in a form of ritual sacrifice, I don't think I'm showing any bias by claming the game will likely be rated for mature audiences. I also think it's noteworthy to show that more mature aimed games are being released for the wii these days, alongside titles like mario.--Aceya (talk) 17:47, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I guess the term there that made it sounded bias was the "... in the USA...". Well, I guess they should have removed that part. Also, the text is constantly implying the rating which made it a bit, let's just say off the topic in the article.--JCD (Talk) 03:43, 4 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Wouldn't that be irrelevant speculation anyway, as the game was never released in the US? (For sake of reference, Fatal Frame was rated T; Fatal Fram 2 & 3 were rated M.)  76.25.139.167 (talk) 07:35, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Bugs in released game
According to this article, the game has been released in Japan with some serious bugs and glitches. Nintendo of Japan have responded to the complaints here. Does anyone know someone who can translate Japanese so we know whether there's been a Product recall like there was when Forever blue was released in Japan.

 * As far as that page goes, no, they've not done that. Xylophone220 (talk) 02:13, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Gesshoku?
Some sources romanize the subtitle as Gesshoku no Kamen, yet I don't see why. Can anyone figure this out? --M.A. (talk) 12:08, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Checking with Jim Breen's WWWJDIC only Gesshoku means Lunar Eclipse while Tsukihami doesn't (not even the produced words are the same as the original), but that could be just missing "translation. --M.A. (talk) 12:14, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * They're probably taking it directly from the kanji's other readings, while people using "tsukihami" are using the official version (from the logo, trailer etc.). The kanji can also be read as "Gesshoku", so that's most likely where they got it from. 92.3.224.177 (talk) 02:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Name change?
I found a article just recentley stating that a source from tecmo says the game won't make it to america as Fatal Frame IV. Either the IV is dropped for a regular game. Then there is it will not be released under Fatal Frame at all instead a new title and new series. i'll look for it again.--VampireKen (talk) 19:45, 1 February 2009 (UTC)


 * As of now, it hasn't been released in the US and likely never will be. "Fatal Frame IV" is a completely unofficial title (though it likely would have been called that if it got a US release) but fans of the series often refer to it this way for sake of reference.  76.25.139.167 (talk) 07:38, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

December 3, 2009?
Someone has edited the article to claim that NOA has changed their mind and will release the game in the US on December 3, 2009. The citation, however, links to an article that says that Fatal Frame 4 will never be released in the U.S. I can also find no evidence that Tecmo has made any announcements on a release date for FF4 in the US. Should the offending line be deleted?74.240.204.120 (talk) 23:15, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
