Because Boktai bombed in the US and Europe. Konami decided to scrap all traces from the game. |

I.E, they did not want to lose sales for Lunar Knights because if they released it as Boktai DS, other people would not buy it due to Boktai being a losing series. The reason why it was a losing series is because in the U.S. and Europe, getting sunlight is harder than in Japan, which is also the reason why Boktai 3 was not released. |

God, let me say it loud and clear: THE GOAL OF A COMPANY IS TO MAKE MONEY. English speaking countries did not like Boktai, so them not releasing Shinbok here wasn't a big blow to them. Be happy we actually got Lunar Knights, because I doubt we'll ever get any other Boktai game. |

Not very on topic, but I just thought of something. If it is "money first" with them, then why did SquareSoft not release Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix in English? They said that they did not release it due to it not being worth it to re-release it in the US, but I think they could scam it up. (Yet I doubt that every company scams everyone. I am not one of those Hate-Konami's-tactics people. In fact, I do not hate any company at all. A lot of people may be opposed to my "do not hate video game companies" philosophy, but that is how I think that they should be treated. And also, I doubt that you 100% hate Konami, because it is because of Konami that Boktai was invented in the first place! Hold your peace regarding your dislike/hate of video game companies and their ideas, people!) Also, I think that even though sunlight is much easier to get in Puerto Rico, I extremely doubt that teeny-weeny PR will be enough to counteract all the complaints of the USA and Europe. (This is weird because, like I mentioned earlier, I am from Puerto Rico!) But it is possible... |

They probably thought we wouldn't buy it, but then saw how much we gobbled up KH2 that they decided to bring KH2:FM here (I think). |

The only reason that boktai went down the drain in english is because they over played the solar sensor. If not for that we would probably have boktai 3 AND the ryuusie stuff in Lk. |
