As of yet, Wangan Midnight remains unlicensed in the United States, and it is an older manga title which means that scanslations are rare to non-existent.

It is also unlikely that Wangan Midnight will be licensed any time soon. Even though the Namco arcade game is enjoying fair success here stateside, the title is prohibitively expensive for licensing and doesn't have a wide enough audience to churn out a profit.

It's a shame, too, because Wangan Midnight has some very rich characters (Akio and Reina are a fun couple) and the artwork is phenomeonal.

That and the main character drives an old Datsun 240z.

That right there is a kick in the pants!

Re: Wagan Midnight

In Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero the Last Boss you race in the Whole game has a dark Blue 240Z Datsun and Red you say the main character in Wagan Midnight drives one too... is there any relation to that?

yes, the game was inspired by wangan midnight.

the black porsche in that game is based on the porsche in wangan midnight (the 240z's main rival)

Re: Wagan Midnight

Hey now, I never said Wangan Midnight was out of print. It's been around as long as Initial D, though, and that qualifies it as an older title.

Sheeit, Oh! My Goddess has been continually running since 1989 in Japan. It's an older title in most anyone's book.

Re: Wagan Midnight

Dude, that movie is pretty old school. I've had it for like 6 years now. Nice movie, i think it was based on that Tokyo Extreme Racer game.
