AAAArgh. This is a community - at least let me know that you can't answer the question/it's silly/knob off. etc. and then I won't have to keep checking back in vain. I have posted long articles in the past (only a few - but I think less is more, instead of multiple inane and boring posts) so I am not a leech.
And also - don't ban me - this is a legit complaint, some of the posts (ho-hum the Rare story AGAIN) get more replies. I think the most interesting one on here yesterday was the drench the cube one, which it turns out got the author a solution in the end - well done.
:o( Come on guys....

Not exactly. You see, the games are made in Japan - so they're obviously going to come out there first. Then, they're going to go to the biggest games market in the world - America. Then, finally, they target Europe. Nintendo can't just give it quickly to the UK first (why, I don't know) so they must convert languguages across the whole of Europe. And then there's some lengthy technological conversions.
Nintendo don't hate Europe, we just get a bit of a poor deal when it comes to strategy - it happens with all Japanese based developers.
