Yes, really, we're going to get the third of the Wii games Nintendo passed on releasing here, thanks to Xseed; apparently The Last Story was very successful for them, so they're going to release this too probably as a result.

It's too bad that "Operation Rainfall" only focused on these three (first-party Wii) titles, it would have been nice to see Earth Seeker too, and there are plenty of DS games they passed on that also are probably better than Pandora's Tower... oh well.
Loved the last two, will most likely pick this one up to complete the trifecta. I agree that they should widen their focus. Have you seen Rainfall's site lately? They've turned themselves into an amateur news site... Rather disappointing... I'd love if instead they continued to have laser focus on more titles, perhaps picking 3 at a time.

The unfortunate fact is that it's too late to ask for DS games to be brought here. It'd be like asking for Mother 3 to be released now in 2013, as opposed to 2006 when there was actually a chance. The biggest gift of Rainfall wasn't the individual games, but rather the message sent to Nintendo that their decades old policy on RPGs outside Pokemon (based on Earthbound's poor sales and a tough time getting RPGs to take off on the NES) is now outdated. People WILL buy them now, and in droves. So with that said, if Itoi's Mother related announcement is something along the lines of a Mother 1-3 collection for 3DS, here's hoping Nintendo decides to bring that over here.
