[edit] Glitch in Japanese release

Any objections to include some information on the glitch found in the Japanese release that causes the game to freeze? http://kotaku.com/gaming/clip/forever-blue-buggy-freezing-up-japanese-wiis-285149.php --Roddie Digital 23:47, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sequel to Everblue Series

It seems worthwile to mention that this was made by the same developer as the Everblue series and may be a (spiritual) sequel. We could at least say that they are made by the same company and are at least similar in subject matter.

[edit] Title to be used...

I was wondering whether or not the title of this article should be Forever Blue, considering it's only named Endless Ocean in North America at this point in time, as well as the fact that it's not being initially released in North America. Other articles in the same situation do this, such as Yoshi's Universal Gravitation (Yoshi Topsy-Turvy in North America). Any thoughts? Hardcore gamer 48 11:32, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

I think you're right. 84.1.197.205 12:51, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
I don't even think they call it Endless Ocean anymore, anywhere. I think it should be moved. Salty!Talk! 05:36, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
I think that renaming it Forever Blue would make the most sense. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Adthegreat (talk • contribs) 18:42, August 21, 2007 (UTC).

I put in a request to move it at Requested Moves. I tried to move it myself but thier are some technical issues preventing a smooth move. Deathawk 21:19, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

PAL vs. NTSC, round 1, fight! Tehw1k1 15:30, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I think the move was done a bit too early... supposedly now the game is known as Endless Ocean in all regions bar Japan (where that is known as Forever Blue). Or, that's what I heard through the grapevine anyway... : S Hardcore gamer 48 06:00, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

Yes, the new PAL boxart confirms Endless Ocean there as well. -Subsurd 21:50, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Price

Any merit in mentioning this came out in Europe at a low (budget) retail price? In the UK it went on sale brand new for £19.99, half the RRP of most Wii titles. 84.92.8.221 (talk) 10:38, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

I think so, but I'm not sure where it would fit.. -Anthony- (talk) 10:49, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The main character's gender...

Besides female, can the player also have the option of choosing a male character? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.126.71.15 (talk) 03:53, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Duh. It's the very first character customization option you have upon starting a new game! Yellow Mage (talk) 09:58, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Use 'Manaurai' as this is the English WP"?

It's called the Manoa Lai Sea in the NA release, so why was this incorrect of me? Unless by 'English', we mean British English (the EU release)? Sabrewing (talk) 04:27, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Ah, I didn't know that, I thought they would have kept the name the same for all the English language releases. Too easy, I suppose. I've removed the name, and just reduced it to 'a fictional sea', to avoid disagreements. Geoff B (talk) 09:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Boxart

Why was the European boxart removed and the NA boxart used in its place? Tim (Xevious) (talk) 14:00, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

When did this happen? Geoff B (talk) 16:58, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
I believe here. Obviously the actual image has been removed now, but I do remember seeing the EU coverart on the page around the time the game was released here. Tim (Xevious) (talk) 17:16, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
