I've gotta learn Japanese, I'm missing out on too many games!  Let's see... I know how to say "strawberry"... and... .... sigh...  I hope these get translated soon.  I realize how improbable it is that ones like Jump Ultimate Stars will be done, because of licensing and all that legal mumbo jumbo, but they're AAA games from what I've heard, easily ensuring they'd make a good profit.

They just need to say, "we will give you 0.5% of total sales for every character of yours we use".  Since it's just the translation that needs to be done, it's not like it'll cost a lot to make, so there'd still be plenty of money to go to Nintendo and co even if 75% of the revenue went to the other companies.  More importantly, it would drive DS sales because of the north american and european anime/manga fans.
