Operation Rainfall Is A Go

It’s no secret that Zelda Informer has been interested in North American localizations of the Wii games
Xenoblade Chronicles, The Last Story, and Pandora’s Tower for some time now. It looks like we aren’t the only ones. A group of gamers originating on IGN’s forums have now started a campaign, codenamed Operation Rainfall, in attempt to bring all three titles to the West.

The main plan of the operation is to urge Nintendo of America to bring these games, all of which are already released in Japan, to North America through are variety of different methods. The group plans to target each of the three games, starting with Xenoblade.

The first state of the operation will be to flood NOA with letters, emails, and calling NOA directly between the dates of July 11th and July 13th. Their website provides a template letter for anyone interested in participating.

Other tactics include spreading the word on social networking sites and pre-ordering the game under it’s orginal title, Monado, on Amazon. The latter appears to have begun prematurely, as it is currently #1 in video games on Amazon.

I would love a chance to play any of these three games on my Wii, and I hope that if this movement does anything, it’ll prove to NOA that North American gamers are interested in playing Japanese titles.
