There has to be someone out there who is a big enough fan to play both the English and Japanese versions. Or maybe we've taken more accurate translations for granted in the past couple generations, barring some titles getting a 4Kids-esque treatment. I'm sure someone has done it, either as a blog post or something, but it simply didn't get much traction. May 10 Photo Dojo-DSiWare-Nintendo Earthworm Jim-DSiWare-Gameloft May 17 Bit.Not to call into question this translation, but surely if the official localization was that inaccurate this would have been brought up before, right? Or maybe it has, I admittedly have never looked into this before.

A full list of the downloadable release dates follows below. Starting June 11, gamers will be able to download it for 200 DSi points ($2). The camera-compatible fighting game PhotoDojo was confirmed for May 10, with Nintendo offering the game for free for its first month. Nintendo also doled out release dates for a handful of downloadable WiiWare and DSiWare titles today. "You got your Sin in my Punishment!" "You got your Punishment in my Sin!" Like the original game, Star Successor is an on-rails shooter with cooperative play and an emphasis on massive bosses. A sci-fi shooter of a different stripe, Star Successor sees twitch gaming developer Treasure revisit its original Nintendo 64 game from 2000, which didn't see release outside of Japan until Nintendo added it to the Wii's Virtual Console catalog in 2007. The June 27 release slot won't be left open, as Sin & Punishment: Star Successor is taking that date, sliding back a few weeks from its previously expected June 7 launch. The game takes place in 3D, like the Metroid Prime trilogy, but scraps those games' first-person perspective in favor of a third-person view more along the lines of the original NES and Super Nintendo Metroid games. The first original Metroid title to be developed for the Wii, Other M is a sort of amalgamation of the sci-fi action series. The Team Ninja-developed Metroid: Other M had been set for June 27, but Nintendo has pushed that date back to August 31.

Gamers will have to wait a little longer to get Team Ninja's take on the Metroid series. The publisher today confirmed that a pair of those titles has been delayed, and unfortunately for gamers, it's two of the most anticipated titles on the Wii release slate: Metroid: Other M and Sin & Punishment: Star Successor. With the sheer number of release dates Nintendo announced at its February media event in San Francisco, the odds were good that one or two of them would change.
