Um, why do we keep using the term "important game"? It kind of bugs me. It makes sense but it doesn't at the same time.
I kind of imagined that the "importancy" of a game was about how you personally feel about it. Obviously games like Galaxy have an out of this world fan base and there'd be much outrage if it wasn't released here, whereas, if say a Spyro game wasn't released here (let's try one of the first PlayStation games), there wouldn't be nearly as much disappointment but all those Spyro fans would still feel as though they missed out on an "important" game for Galaxy, because you know, they are dedicated to the series, and obviously they would be outnumbered by the onslaught of Mario fans, which isn't quite fair.
That Bomberman Jetters GameCube game I brought up in the Game Anticipation Thread is very important to me (and it's pretty important to quite a few others actually) and has a special place in my heart like all the other 3D Bomberman franchise games. It really doesn't matter if everyone says it sucks, it was an amazing game (like how Sonic Chronicles was a great game) and I would give up one of my other games I own for them to make another for that series, but nooooo it's obvious that the "majority" of people would say "it's not important or good enough". Just leave it at "game popularity" or something.
I do think Act Zero was a terrible idea myself (and so do most others), but I'm sure that game was important or good to some and I won't criticize them for it. I just don't believe in "importance" as being a classification. A lot of people would say "this game wasn't that important" but a lot of others would say it is. Some people in Japan might think MOTHER 3 wasn't important enough so it didn't make it over here but you can easily see that wasn't the case with the fan translation. Soooo yeah just another one of my random "IMHO speeches". I hope I make sense with what I mean here.
