Personally I get rather annoyed at those who have the game which I will have to wait seven months before the European release. it bugs me personaly and yes I know its all to do with shipping and language but with places like the UK which has nearly exactly the same language as the US with around 15 word difference between our language and theres... shipping 20000 to england does not take seven months and neither does changes the odd two words. It realy bugs me.
for example: MP3 (Metroid Prime 3 Corruption) was out seven months ish and it is exactly the same. sure. they have to put a different code on the games but that costs nothing. we have to wait untill october whereas its out in america in febuary or somewheer around that time.
I personality find this dissapointing but hey your veiws.

He probably does...
But there are just alot of factors to getting a game released outside of Japan, especially from a Japanese company. However, Nintendo of America and Nintendo of Japan are closer in their ties so some games get released in America first instead of Japan. That, and in the case of Metroid Prime 3, it is made in America, Texas to be exact by Retro Studios, so that's why America got it first.
And I'm sorry I have to correct you on this, but America got MP3 around the end of August, so we haven't had it that long either...

shadows-of-twilight Viewtiful Lodia We'll propbably won't get SSBB until 6 mounths after US/ Japan... AND THIS IS NO FUN! ... And I thought waiting till February would suck.But it's better to be able to get the game than to not get it at all... Think of it like that for a while, I'm sure it MIGHT help some...

Lucifer Dracule III But it's better to be able to get the game than to not get it at all... Think of it like that for a while, I'm sure it MIGHT help some... it helped for half a minute but then i thought..... if MP3 or the other games only came out in other countries..... id just buy another wii from america and buy games from america although if your point is that there wasnt those games *at all* then i wouldent have wasted half my young childhood playing computer games.....heh... although we have had first releases over here in britain and that game was awsome(cant remeber what it was) but the mainstream of games now have there first release dates in america and/or japan months before us... (all of europe) and yes there are alot of factors to determine the dates.... but.. it realy bugs us europers,...... europe people,........ europians yeah thats it heh it realy bugs us europeans..... oh and yay i camped out yesterday to get MP3C heh yay!

Viewtiful Lodia AND we have the stupid European commision blocking off games; They debated on 7 FREAKING MOUTHS before Elite beat Agents came out in Europe! yeah i know!!!!!! i mean the european commition takes so long just for the game just to get through to them and then when it does, well... they just talk jack sh** about it.. i mean if Grand Theft Auto is let in europe why not other games because i personaly think that GTA is more of a supposedly a "threat" to the community than most other games although i think it was a good idea to ban manhunt but still for games like Elite beat agents i mean. it should take them less than an hour to decide with just two people. And then... for us british it has to go through the british commition too "but" do thay take seven mouths/months (idk what u said) decide? no. they take two days with three people deciding why... then its given the all clear....why cant the european commition do this eh...... heh.....jeez

omgcow EDIT: follow tos rules follow guild rules DONT USE ANY SIZE OVER NORMAL PLEASE AND AS I DIDNT NOTE THIS EARLIER THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY DONE THIS will be forgiven. BUT THOSE WHO DO IT FROM NOW WILL BE GIVEN A WARNING. A SECOND OFFENCE IN THIS TOPIC WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER WARNING AND A THIRD OFFENCE WILL GET YOU BANNED FROM THIS GUILD. this has been stated clearly so i am allowed to give these terms and conditions. and mods/admins i have made these rules clear and readable so i hope these rules will be allowed to be put forth for this topic. Yup that's weird... Anyways, I bet that Europeans won't get Guitar hero 3 until March 2008. Anyone taking bets here?
