Wow, this gets more stupid as time goes on.
Kinda wish I donated now so I had a reasonto keep following this, besides pure entertainment value of course.

I wonder how many times they will change their story?

Was there a count of how many actually gave them money? I mean why would you give these guys anything? I'd send 10 dollars to Xseed randomly before these guys. What a joke.

Hahahaha apparently the theif that stole all of his electronics accidentally took a giant ass box of empty boxes instead of the 3DS.

Three things bother me here. First, this doesn't sound like someone who just got robbed. In fact, he doesn't even mention it. Second, this post says the boxes were left in an insecure location by UPS whereas the first post said the boxes were stolen from inside their home. And third, they're going to post more info on Monday? Sounds like they have enough time to photoshop a fake police report and get their stories straight...

I'm glad localizing games doesn't mean much to me anymore. Nintendo scammed me with Earthbound for years, so I didn't get my hopes up for anymore quality games from Nintendo.

I remember looking at this 'donation' with skepticism; glad I did.

Sorry to everyone who was hoping for a CE box, and/or localization of one of your favorite games. Nintendo sucks...And so do these cons.

...until they get it right dammit!

These guys tout themselves as the driving force behind the localization of big games, yet they can't even hold on to a box full of boxes.

Someone just needs to report these guys to the feds already.

Have they said they would still post the police report? I bet they reneged it. Police reports are public records, so you could request it from the police to make sure it exists.

Hey guys, just letting you all know I'm sorry for ever defending these punks.

It turns out the person who stole all their boxes were...themselves. THEY ARE THE THIEVES!

I heard it was an evil cadre of breakdancers.

Same here man... same here. I think these guys started out with a genuine love for the 3 games, but they ended up exploiting their fanbase.

Ever heard of the show "American Greed"? I think these guys fit the build to be on that show.

And here's your meme:



but seriously guys, how much money do you think they even got from the fans? You make it sound like they made away with



when it was probably more like

LOL @ THE CASE IS A LIE

And I don't think those clowns are set for life or anything like that but I do think they got a nice chunk of change from other people that they spent on things other than lobbying for game localization or getting boxes printed.

I'll take millions of pesos. That's still hundreds of thousands.

They requested $600 originally, but kept accepting donations after that mark was met. But based on how people pledge money on Kickstarter, I wouldn't be surprised if people kept donating and in amounts exceeding $10.

But the fact that they said they would issue refunds, which I doubt, makes me think that they probably didn't make much more than the $600 they were looking for.

Running under the assumption that these folks are still being honest, I'm a little confused about the chain of events here. I've asked for a bit of clarification on things. Hopefully, they'll be forthcoming - but reading the reply of someone like Zyzxx on there doesn't really instill a lot of confidence...
