Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....Noooooooooooooooo!! No Animal Crossing for good old Europe. Oh well. I gues we'll all have to wait till they don't release Animal Crossing 2 years from now. Cheers Ninty!

Right, so a small site, that is proboply run from someones livng room says animal crossing won't be released here, and you beleive it!
Riggghttttt
Riggghttttt
And if nintendo really said this, it'd be all over the net by know, i can't find any other sites that say this...
Looks like Datels Freeloader is back in business!
Last I heard that Nintendo was blocking them from releasing it.
Well:
A while back, MS lost a leagal battle in Australia - trying to make it illeagal to chip consoles.
The Aussie government said that the regional lock out was against their laws so chipping the console was perfectly fair and that consumers should not be prevented from getting the best import deals under Australia's trade laws.
In that case, Datel would be able to release their Software down under, from where your friendly importer would pick up the neccessary disks to let people buy their imported games.
Another World would be one of these importers, and I could pop to town to pick up Animal Crossing along with the Cheat Explorer (for glitches and secrets ofcourse!) and the Freeloader that came with it.
Now does anyone have any contact with Datel?

Edgy.
Nintendo arent blocking them from releasing it. They are having trouble copying the code to the other discs to mass produce it.
Nintendo wont help them with the problem, so its taking ages.

The question is, when? Considering it's "well into development" (with no release date scheduled) for the Japanese version, the US (English) version will take a while (maybe a couple of months) longer to translate, while the Europe version, with the multiple languages, will take even longer!!! There's a good chance Nintendo might confirm Animal Crossing 3 at the same time it gets released over here at this rate.

A lot of large chains are not going to stock Freeloader/ Action replay, Gameplay told me they werent, as i remember there were a few others, we may have to rely on smaller chains of shops or online companys'.
