I'm sorry, Chris, I'm sorry! It's not my fault! It's all those loons out there (like the Brownie girl (you know who you are) who I hate now!)! I still can't figure out WHY The World Ends With You hasn't been selling! Curse you for buying Imagine Babies, rest of the UK! And Mario Kart Wii sales are going down! Noooooooooooo! Shovelware is supreme... noooooooooooo! I hate being North Western English!

I want to play them in the correct order.

All of us that wanted Apollo Justice imported it already, I know I did. But I'm more worried about TWEWY. I haven't seen any numbers for it but I'm pretty sure it didn't do too well. I'd love to see a sequel.

I've spent the last three weeks wondering why the rest of the UK is buying Imagine Babies and not TWEWY! Look at the DS charts and you'll see what I mean. I'm so ashamed of my country! Next time I go into a games shop, I'll recommend it to a random group of people my age. Do you think that'll work?

No.

But I'll do the same. We have to convert as many people as we can to the joy that is TWEWY!

I'm going to try and play my DS in any public places I can. Hopefully, that way if people come up to me then I'll tell them what I'm playing and they'll be surprised (I'm a twelve year old girl; I'm expected to play girly games, no?) at my good taste.

I tried goin to ASDA where I typically buy some games, but what did i find NO APPOLLO! I had just earnt enough to buy it, and they didnt have it, or TWEWY! So Ill now have to scour the high street when I next get to go there and pay a bit more, very unfair!

Ive not seen a single copy of TWEWY, which is a shame because its easily one of the best games on the DS. Had to buy it online =/

If TWEWY isn't good, I don't know what is. And yeah, wherever I go I don't see it.

I haven't seen Apollo Justice in any shops either but I bought it on import as soon as it was released in the USA just like most people interested in it would have done, I guess.

I had to buy the amazing TWEWY online too as it seems like Square only made about 3 copies available to all the shops in the UK. I honestly can't believe why they've buried what is their best game in a long, long time. They should have been shouting about it from the rooftops and giving it much more hype and promotion, it is a far more deserving game of such treatment than the latest Final Fantasy spin-off or whatever.

I've finished TWEWY, (the main story, anyway) and have been complaining for a few weeks about the lack of sales and the sales of shovelware. Right. I am going to have to tell everyone I can about TWEWY. Everyone who doesn't shun me, and has a DS. (And I'm a pirate so I got the ROM, haha, and so did a friend of mine. I recommended it to her, knowing she likes this kind of stuff.) I'll tell the guy who I walk to and from school with, too. And another of my friends. And I'll carry around TWEWY everywhere, proud and when people ask me what I'm playing, I'll tell them! Hopefully, that should work.
And Flint: I hated the Final Fantasy on DS too, so I'm with you.

I agree that it's every TWEWY fan's duty to spread the word about the greatness of the game to as many people as possible but the key thing is to tell them to actually buy the game either from a shop or online. People should definitely NOT be encouraged to just download the game as this results in a lost sale for Square Enix, and if no-one buys the game SE will think twice about making a sequel or taking a chance on other new original games. It's sales figures that often dictate what games get developed and published and TWEWY deserves as many legitimate sales as it can get.

By the way, I don't hate the DS Final Fantasy games (I'm actually really looking forward to FFIV and enjoyed FFIII DS a lot), it's just that TWEWY is so great a game that I can't stand to see it's own publisher not giving it the love it deserves, especially when it's easily as good as any of Square Enix's better known series.

Sorry for the misunderstanding of FF, it's just that you said TWEWY's far more deserving. And don't worry, more people don't know how or what pirating is than those who do, so it's not going to be TOO much damage. And I said to the friend to try it, I never said to buy the game or get the ROM specifically. Still, I hope she recommends it to people who do buy them legitimately. Maybe I'll tell her to do that. And TWEWY needs loving, yes.

With regard to TWEWY, I've been evangelizing people into getting it. So far, it's spreading around my University well enough as a result.(by that I mean 5 or six people I've told have bought it themselves...)

Char6296: That's cool, hope your friends all buy and enjoy the game and continue to spread the word!

All this talk of promoting TWEWY reminds me of the bit in the game where you have to make those red pins popular around town - maybe we need some kind of "buy TWEWY" pin that we could spread around in the real world!

Lol. This is where my sister's Super Badge It would work. I'm taking my DS into school too, despite the fact that Neil is gonna practically jump on me and try and get it. Also, my friend needs help on it, so... two TWEWYs under one roof! Yay!
