"No 50hz mode in Metroid Prime 2"

DOn't know if you guys know this but Nintendo have decided not to include a 50hz mode in the PAL release of Prime 2.

So if you have an old TV with no 60hz mode, you're screwed.

Once again Nintendo shows its love for Europe....

So, is this part of the reason why we're getting the game so close to the American release?

I mean, and I could be wrong here, but don't American games run on a 60hz-only setting, or something? Therefore, Nintendo would have only the language differences to sort out before the PAL version is ready.


Doesn't bother me, anyway. I have a nice 21" TV - and an RGB Scart Lead to go with it! :)
(I still won't be buying Echoes for a while, though...)


Is this really such a problem for people today, though?
I mean, how many people DO still use stone-age TVs for playing their 30-odd brand-new games on, anyway??

With a game like Metroid Prime 2, it's hardly gonna affect sales, now, is it! If it means quicker releases, I'm all for it!

Only a slightly quicker release mind.

Translations do take a while... fortunatly Nintendo's translators teams are rather good and quick.

Converting the game to 50htz, as in slowing down everything, takes a while.

Nintendo were adament the game hits Europe this year as there isn't a major release in America or Europe.

The sad thing is there isn't really one in Japan either since Resident Evil 4 was pushed to January.
