Did OWI....
 

Do well in the japanese market? I'm just wondering....

i'm lost, tell me what it's about

Read the thread title Icarus.

Well they chopped off Abe's fourth finger to sell in the Japanese market but I don't think it really worked. I'm not an expert but I think AO only sold okay in Japan. Someone told me that MO wasn't even released there but I'll need a confirmation on that.

The first 2 Oddworld games were'nt even relised in Japan.
They made Japaniese versions just for that very reason. "Abe 99' " and "Abe a GO-GO".

yep Abe a Go-Go is the same as the Oddysee.
and Abe 99 is the same as the Exoddus.

I'm not quite sure for the 2 xbox games

okay i see, i picture OWI to be an american sorta thing

Well thanks for some of the info. I just like knowing how game series do in the jap. market cause I heard that is the most important market in the gaming industry.

well also most of that hi-tech mechanical stuff.

Other way around, Xav.

ya know, i never heard of Abe a-go-go???

No... Abe 99 is the second one, thus is the Exoddus

Atusiya@, you little turd!
Gimme that Oddworld clothing!

wait let me get this straight.

Abe a go-go=Abe's oddysee

Abe 99=Abe's Exoddus

am i correct???

As stated earlier and supported since, yes. That's the right way around.

Did Abe 99 not have 300 mudokons in it?
...or did the game come out in 1999 in Japan?

The second one.

Okay...
I could see how the others were getting confused thinking Abe 99 was actually AO.
