Sad to see another game with such a low number of votes. It deserves to be a lot higher. It is still a game not officially available outside of Japan. Don't see a good reason for them to keep it and not have at least an English translation of this game.
Call me cringe all you want but despite never being able to play it this game has had an immense impact on my life. The primary reason I chose to start learning Japanese, a decision which would go on to impact nearly every aspect of my life, was because I wanted to experience this for myself. So much has changed since I first heard about it, and after all these years, I just need to experience this game for myself.
Those games also need your vote!

Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale
Recettear: An Item Shop's TaleRecettear is the story of an item shop, the girl who lives in it, and the fairy who turned her life upside down. Recette Lemongrass finds herself in charge of an item shop built into her house, in order to pay back a loan her father took and then skipped out on - and Tear, her newfound fairy "companion", won't take no for an answer! As Recette, you have to decide how you'll get your stock - either through playing the markets in town or going out into the wild with an adventuring friend and thrashing beasts until they give up the goodies - how much to sell things for, what the shop should look like, and how to best go about getting the money Tear needs to pay off the loan. If you can't come up with the money... well, hope you like living in a cardboard box.

Digimon World 3
Digimon World 3Digimon World 3 is a role-playing video game created by Bandai for the PlayStation. You play as a child called Junior who enters an online virtual reality MMORPG called "Digimon Online", which is run by the "MAGAMI" corporation.
