"The clockwork palace" is a perfectly fine localization for it. I think this means we might get it. :D :D :D Oh man, oh man, oh man!!!! :O :O :O

I hate how in this day and age game companies can't say the MIGHT PORT a game or that it SHOULD BE RELEASED AROUND MONTH X. Unless they've cleared it with the legal department as done deals they can only talk about the game's port status once it is ALREADY a done deal. So even if, I can dream dammit, Shiren 3 is a likely possibility Sega won't say shit until it is already well into production with at least a rough release date projected.

Look how natural each of them sounds to say in English.The Shiren 3 subtitle feels "localized" by someone. That someone might be an employee at Nintendo who translated this or Sega. We don't know, but the subtitle is also different from the literal Japanese translation. If the person translating the list used rough translations why wouldn't they call it Shiren the Wanderer 3: The Sleeping Princess in Karakuri Mansion?Anyways, it's just something interesting to note... and look out for. @Lord Gek – I’m not saying get your hopes up, but you pointed out why the Shiren 3 subtitle could be significant while the Tecmo translation isn’t.

This is clearly a completely English version of a title (although, sure, it is far beyond awkwardly retarded sounding) but I'm assuming that is just because this is the English version of that report and IF they could whip out a rough English translation of a title in this report they did so.
