Higurashi When They Cry: Potential Re-translation

Following the news that MangaGamer’s Higurashi was successfully Greenlit on Steam, the company revealed that a potential retranslation of the game is possible.  In an interview with VNTLS, Kouryuu was quoted as saying,

“The potential sales a Steam release means has given us an opportunity to consider updating the translation. We’re currently looking at our schedule to see if such a vast revision is feasible, but it is something we would strongly like to do before this new release.”

Seems like a waste of time to retranslate Higurashi. Just like that retranslation of Cross Channel is completely redundat.
