This game was one of my favourite until i haven't heard anything about it

if you still don't know what this game is about then here you go:

You are a guy in Africa and you take photo's of animals and sell them post them and then you can buy new equipment, cars, etc.....

this games does look great although so far i have only heard of a Japanese release i don't know if it's only Japanese but i think they already have it

Does any one know?
Does any like this game?
Does any one want this game?

i mainly want this game because i love photography also		2008-10-18 04:14:00

This game look's awesome even though not your usual styled game but ultimately I would love to have something like this. But the bad news it is so far a Japanese release only. At the moment there has been rumors of possible America release but they were quashed by Sony as soon as they came. But lets hope something can develop.2008-10-18 04:18:00

Nope unfortunately it's true, recent rumours had spread due to high sales in Japan that there would be a possibility of a release in N/A then they would see europe. But Sony swiftly put that to end saying that they had no intentions of actually allowing that to happen.

Game wise Famitsu scored it 29/40 which a game in it's genre is really good but also I think other magazines in japan scored it highly too. The most impressive is the scale of the game and the life like animals. But the unfortunately thing is it will most likely never see the light in the western countries due to it's demand not being as high. Which in my opinion is a shame.		2008-10-18 06:56:00

If you're not too bothered about the story itself, could you not import a copy and check out some of the game's forums to help you navigate through the menus? I have managed this before for a few Japanese only games (there was probably less text again on those games, but I suppose it depends how badly you want it...)2008-10-18 07:48:00

Yeah I actually thought of that but the thing is I this game would require a lot of reading as in objectives in what I have to do and going backwards and forwards could possibly get annoying and spoil the fun. Or you could just learn japanese..2008-10-18 09:58:00

Nothing will beat Pokemon Snap. That game was epically awesome, and was by far one of the best Nintendo games - ever. I only wish they would - oh, wait, I might make a new thread for this. XD		2008-10-19 09:48:00

"You could say its the ultimate 'First Person Shooter ' "

Its a great game for showcasing the PS3's graphic abilities, but in all honesty, who wants a game where you just have to take photos of animals?		2008-10-21 08:46:00

OMG I just received my copy of Hakuna Matata (Korean version) and the game does NOT disappoint.

Pokemon Snap am pwned total. It's the best photo game i've ever played in my life. If you like taking photos and you like animal documentaries it's a must. There's alot of content from National Geographic to unlock in the game. Incredible photos and great videos too.

The animals are also believable in the game and the general visual quality is good! Sometimes the framerate rushes a bit but nothing to really distract. Hiding in the bushes and having a Zebra coming 3 feet of your to actually eat at that bushes is AWESOME.

Last good news: Natsume just announced they will publish this game in America this fall!

Calling them bad would be a bit harsh I would say.

The visuals aren't bad at all. It's not impressive in trailers or low res movies. When its in your face on your TV it's awesome.
