Formal request for Spanish as a new language for ARR.

---snip---or even have a chance to play (widespread access to high speed internet and hardware), and how many of those don't speak English.

And please, good sir, tell me how many of these people play videogames? The majority comes from spain, thats roughly 50 million people.

Most retarded argument in this discussion -_-

Do I have to point out the blatant stereotyping in your posts, my friends? Are you two among the ones that consider the Spanish-speaking world to be tailored to your prejudices?

The fact is I know Latin America and Spain VERY well, and I happen to know the social, economical, infrastructural and technological aspects the best. I can guarantee that (just to entertain your biased perception of the Western Hemisphere for a bit) there are plenty of potential costumers just in the high classes, in this hemisphere's 21 Spanish-speaking countries, not to mention Spain. (And no, they don't all speak English!) That is to say nothing of the fact that the region includes some of the fastest growing economies, and some of the fastest developing network technology in the planet.

Yes, taken together, and as a market for interactive electronic products, those 22 countries are capable of competing with, and perhaps even surpassing, any single European country and its discrete linguistic bubble. (France is about 65 million people, whereas Hispanic America and Spain are close to 500 million people.) And all that's needed is ONE Localization. Just ask the fellows at Blizzard! Now, that's sticking to the idea that only the high classes would be interested. However, your perception is prejudiced and antiquated; there's far much more potential to tap in that respect, in Latin America and its expanding, huge middle class, than the stereotypical rich family kids.

Ah, and you speak of Square-Enix as if they were some sort of paragon of market planning, or of planning in any department. Please, remember last night alone! They invited far too many people to gather at a single spot, for one interactive event. This, in servers that they were closing specifically because they were unable to deal with more than just a handful of simultaneous log-ins at any given moment. Does that look like they understand what's best for them in Marketing?
