That is one of the worst thought through comments I've ever heard. First of all, Nintendo do a lot for Europe - a lot. Think of magazine exclusives, etc. There was one year in NOM, where Shigeru Miyamoto would have a page of answering question's each issue. Think about it for a second, and then you'll see:

1. Nintendo games are produced in Japan by Japanese people in Japanese, so naturally they'll come out in Japan.
2. America is the biggest market for games in the world, so naturally they'll bring them out there second.
3. Europe are the next biggest games consumer in the world, so we'll obviously get games after America and Japan.

The reason there are sometimes about five month time differences, is because people must put the game into the right language, and re-program it so it works on our console. Then there must be extensive testing, once again. They must do this for America and Europe, and it takes more time and people - which explains the price differences.

One last thing, if Nintendo hate Europe, why is Mario Italian?

Nintendo DON@T hate europe. It's the second biggest buying area they deliver to.
America buy's the most ninty things, then europe, then japan. So they roll in the money from us. And they can't hate us for that.

But the thing is, most consoles have a huge back catalogue for gamers to catch up with.

The Gamecube is still new, and needs Nintendo's care through it's early days.

It's the same every year. All the great titles are being released during
septembar, octobar and decembar. Around New year and Christmas anyway.
It is like that for all the consoles not just Gamecube. I am already used to summer shortidge of groundbreaking titles. Summer is the slowest time for shoping and sales in general 'cos people are spending all their hard earned money on hollidays and such, like clothes and all beach accesories and add-ons and s... And software developers know that, so they wait, just laughing it away. Wait until Christmas they say. And after summer drought they trow out so much games sooo much at once and nobody has the time and money to play it all and buy it all. I thin' thats all some big conspiracy of global proportions that is even bigger then Roswell and Area 51 put togather and it's growing by second. And you can't escape. They will find you or .......you'll find them. Be aware..be very afraid. They don't teach you that in high schooll. Anyway cheers!!

Maverik, most of those were launch games.

Anyway, the launch was great.
Smash Brothers followed shortly.
Pikmin was June's treat.

And that was it...
As great as these initial games were, they haven't really last people through the Summer.

Still, Turok, Resi and Timesplitters hit in September and in OCtober we get Mario and Eternal Darkness.

The good games haven't gone anywhere.
They're still coming.



Anyway, I know that people are supposed to spend more time in the Sun during summer, but we're gamers.
Besides, come September, most of us will be back at school!
