i mean wouldnt it increase the sales to attract more players? i'm not an expert but it shouldnt be THAT demanding ,unlike adding an eng dub
i hate it when i find a cool psvita game just for it to be japanese only and finding a full fan translation is usually a miracle
woulda been cool if i learned the language overnight haha
 
They don't do a translation either due to a lack of budget or they don't think overseas would sell enough to justify the costs. Translations and localizations actually do cost time and money even if it's just text being translated and not adding a dub. A lot of Japanese games, especially that of RPGs and visual novels, tend to be very story and dialogue heavy so there's a lot of things to translate. And professional translators have to be paid and they have to do translations, quality assurance, etc. And not to mentions that programmers also have to do work to implement them in.
