Get exclusive Bleach: Dark Souls content
Posted by George. Filed under George, Nintendo DS. Tagged with Bleach: Dark Souls.
The new website for Bleach: Dark Souls has launched and with its launch comes a way to get exclusive password-protected content. You just have to sign up for Sega Pass! Don’t say that Sega never gave you anything! Let’s hope Sega Pass actually works, because I heard people are having issues with it.
They had the game available to play at Sega’s Gamers Day 2008. I asked the guy what the difference was between this one and the Japanese version. He said the American version has English voice actors and doesn’t have the ability to upload your own avatar on Wi-Fi, even though the site says you can make and use your own avatar. So who knows? I asked why they didn’t include Japanese voices and he said localization troubles with Viz. So they did try. It shouldn’t be an issue since fighting games rarely talk.

Eh? Localization troubles? You don’t have to localize Japanese speech! I’m sure it’s actually more along the lines of corporate politics (or perhaps something technical), than anything else.
As for the avatar bit, it’s probably not finalized either way. Subject to change, or what have you.

Oh they said something about contract that Viz has with the Japanese actors. I think they get paid if Japanese voices are used in the West.
