But there would be zero convesion costs. Sheer lunacy on Nintendo's part.
I think I'm going to try pass a motion making me the boss.
That would work.

Nintendo wouldn't release one game in Europe and not any other country... especially a european country it doesn't do well in.
Yeah, but was it not that the French threatened to empose tarriffs on them or something?
I have no idea I just know when Nintendo favoured other European countries over france in relation to Pokemon they got into trouble.

Did I ever tell you I got a GBAPlayer for free?
And I mean totally free, I didn't even have to use any stars for it.
Do you remember when they updated before Xmas? Well I got there, and it said that there were 50 GBA Players available. I had enough stars, so I followed the process through, only to say that they had sold out. Back to the stars front page, hit refresh, it still said 50 available.
So I send an email to them, say it's not working. Go back to the site later, and they're all gone. Send a follow up email, sayign I tried to get one, it said they were there, now they're all gone.
A couple of days pass, and they reply, ask what gift I was trying to claim, and ask for my adress.
28 days later, a GBAPlayer turns up on my doorstep.
Sweeeeeet.

_FRANCE ARE NOT GETTING THE GAME IT IS AGAINST THE LAW FOR NINTENDO TO RELEASE A GAME IN ONE COUNTRY IN EUROPE AND NOT ANOTHER. IF IT COMES OUT IN FRANCE IT COMES OUT OVER HERE AS WELL. GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD.

The NTSC versions are about £25 - some even with a freeloader thrown in!

Are you braindead?
How the hell would it cost "loads" to bring out a PAL version of the game???? ITS IN AUSTRALIA.
A new front cover, which consists of copy an pasting an age rating over the Ozzy equivalent, and it is done. Hell you could ship them from Australia and get some office kid to sticker them up.
Yes, translations take time, which is why FRANCE is getting the game and we - who speak English - like australia - are not.
I don't want the import version, I want something I can play on my PAL gamecube and get for the price of a normal PAL game. Yep, CD WOW has (had?) Ozzy versions, but it's never going to get the game wide sales like that is it?
