"Sega are back on track for selling games to Europe!"

Sega have decided to allow Infogrames to distribute all Sega games to be released on Nintendo consoles in Europe.

This means that we'll be seeing Infogrames printed on a lot of our GameCube and Game Boy Advance games next to the Sega logo.

Does this mean we'll soon be seeing Chu Chu Rocket on our Game Boys?

Hopefully!

Datel have created the World Port for allowing you to send and recieve emails from a Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance (not sure whether it works with original and pocket though).

There's a slot in the top for connecting a phone cable that comes with the cart.

Sega are still excellent* and it's nice to see them do well. Without Sega, gaming would be missing a piece, a big piece of its heritage and its charm. Its amazing the reaction that Sega got from going back to software development, but they know what they are doing and I'm sure they will make a good success of it.

Isn't it funny, though, how all the companies that were once rivals (especially EA) and said nasty things about Sega in the past, are now jumping at the chance to distribute their new games for all the other systems?!

I'm looking forward to having another handheld Sonic game and maybe getting to see all those old classic Sega games on the GBA. I'd like to think that Sega will one day be back to their old status and have the popularity they once had when the Mastersystem and Megadrive were around. Likewise, I never want to see Nintendo die either, and Sony have become a driving force behind games for older players, so its good that they didn't just give up when the fad was over, which they could so easily have done.

Yey Sega!










*this does not mean that the other games/console companies aren't excellent too, and don't you go telling me that I'm a Sega fanboy either as I like any company that makes excellent games. Just clearing things up!

Costs - they can't afford the developing and publishing and distribution costs, so they let the others deal with it until they're in the green once more.

What I want to know is, why aren't Sega distributing their own games around Europe?

They've had enough experience of it over the years, and they're a softco' only, it's hardly as if they'd be biased, is it?

with a special mobile adaptor and a wap enabled phone from mitsubishi i think , or it may be another phone company , only in japan at the mo

How exactly would you connect a GameBoy to the Internet?

I only heard today that Infogrames will be releasing it.

Try and find an email address for infogrames and ask them....

If I find one I'll let you know...

Do you have any idea when it's out? I might change the game for something else. it's boring playing with Castlvania all the time.

Chu Chu Rocket is one of my main reasons for getting a GBA!

Man, I've pre-ordered my copy of Chu Chu Rocket way before the GBA's release... they said it would be out on the GBA's launch.
