Visual Novel company starts cracking down… Where is the US copy of the game?

I have read Janette’s post on the “Witch Hunt” crackdown of Umineko and it begs to differ.

Where can I get a legal, translated copy of Umineko?

There is none… The only way to get the game is hope to find a copy online, import it and apply the translation. However, wouldn’t it be easier for the visual novel company to license the game to a company like MangaGamers and have them sell a legal copy of the VN with an official translation? That is a pipedream since most visual novel companies are now hostile to foreigners because of the idiotic attack by (un)Feminism Now on Eroge Games… Blame them for the companies reluctance to license the game to other companies with localized translations because we will never see a legal alternative for VNs… if ever.

Also, blame PeTA too…
