I don’t know what goes through the heads of producers, that think gamers want less content in there games. But it happens. Masayoshi Kikuchi, Producer of Yakuza 3, admits that their decision to cut content out of Yakuza 3 was wrong.
“We did what we thought would be good for the Western market, but after the game was released we received a lot of feedback from users in the complete opposite direction, asking for complete content. It was a big surprise for us. I’m definitely pleased that people wanted to see more, but at the same time, I feel sorry for the fans who were let down by the cut content.” – Masayoshi Kikuchi, Producer for Yakuza 3
It is OK Mr. Kikuchi, just give us a patch to put in that extra content? No? Well, just give us a complete package with Yakuza 4 and we will call it even.

Told you it was not SEGA of America…
I can understand why they cut the Japanese trivia thing, but not really anything else.
I think fans would apreciate this gesture alot.
Well if they must include in the dating crap, don't give trophies for it.
To me the bar management and the hostess stuff totally wrecks the flow and breaks character for Kazuma. Everything is so urgent, like Oh no, the orphanage had been destroyed, but I think I'll stop and buy a necklace for what-herface at Stardust.
Its optional so it shouldnt really matter. peronally i loved running the hostess bar.
Ryo went and bought toys right after his father was murdered. I see no difference here. 😉
