The "Nintendo Games" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I have been asked to pass on any comments and queries addressed to me about Datel's products (about information and such - remember I don't actually work for the company) and have done so, informing Datel about the frustration by most of you all by the long time it's taking for the Action Replay and Freeloader release dates.
Although no date has been set, I can tell you that they will be released "any day now" so you wont have much longer to wait for their releases.
The problem is that the development of the discs has taken longer than expected and that's why that, although the products were announced for summer, it's closer to Autumn for the release.
Again, if you have any queries about these products, ask me on MSN and I will do my best to answer them - not as an official spokesman ('cos I'm not) but as someone who can contact Datel and find out answers for you if answers are available.
Again, expect the discs any day now as they will be released as soon as it is possible.

You go to gameaday.co.uk and click on the links that say "winners for prize 1" etc. To claim you email special reserve and tell them what you would like to claim.
and how do you claim gameaday
I bet any money too that when they do arrive they will be crap and wont run properly. I recently bought the action replay for the PS2 and found that the disc doesnt load sometimes or it freezes the screen. Im seriously considering cancelling my order for the AR now cos it aint worth the hassle!
Apparently, the release has been delayed until mid- September, due to a reason and hiccup with Nintendo-as they say that it could enable Pirate software to be played (like DC Utopia boot-up) in the future.
Wheather you believe that or not, is entirely up to you.
However, I'll only choose to belive such things if I don't get my Action Replay in the post come next Monday.
I have an order for US Super Mario Sunshine and Datel better not let me down!! or there will be one customer who will never touch their products again. And I'm serious, I don't want to be out of money, as I'll not be able to send SMS back.
I'd say this news is pretty reliable since Datel contacted Goblin Games about it, since GG were expecting to take delivery of the Freeloader discs.

Indeed. If they can show a working demonstration on their magazine, my heart is made heavy that they are still to produce the disk to the mass market.
A slightly extreme view, but it could happen.
