Again Europe are lagging behind, Mario Golf and Mario Tennis not out until Q1/Q2 2004, while USA are getting it in July. Finally E-reader Cards and the E-reader are coming out in November (I've had them since it came out in the US and i don't know when that was, it was so long ago) these are released stupidly with Mario Kart so no-one will be interested in them like they should be, November is one of the busiest months i've ever seen, God Knows where they think we get the money from to get what we want (most of it). The Game-Boy player is released in Conjuction with Wario World next month (Not exactly enough time for people to save Money for it) and most of the new Gamecube games from E3 aren't out to next year, have a look at it www.nintendo.co.uk (I'm not very happy) :( Time for importing me thinks.

No i'm sorry but i'm not getting over it, Mario Kart is COMPLETE says the maker of it so why the hell do we have to wait until November, it should be July/August, oh but of course Nintendo only think about the money rolling in, so they release it Christmas: I can honestly say i don't think Shelly Friend thinks 'We give them a nice game for Christmas' i reckon it's more like 'Yeah, the kids will go on at there parent's to preorder it or have it as a Christmas Present', i know company must think like this, but Nintendo have been doing it all the time. Nintendo are treating as Cr*p. Fine thanks for given us Wario World first but i see the release date for USA about a week later and i haven't heard hardly any impressions on it and it's released in a couple of weeks, and it's not Mario is it?? (even though it could be good). I'm just totally dissapointed with the dates and now Nintendo are going around shutting Import shops there is no way to get them early, (ok only Tqgames have gone at the moment, but who's next??)

Good point i'm also wandering if UK e-reader cards work with the American E-reader, any ideas???

Yea it was in other versions but i hope they have more options to it this time the way the game plays is better than ISS 2 but both still had a few bugs.
I would of liked to be able to change to a formation i make myself or even edit player stats etc.

I was very surprised to see how crap Fifa 2003 was.

The Gameplay was pretty decent, but I was surprised to see that you couldn't create your own teams, players.


And when you created a tournament, you could ony have 20 teams, which was pretty pointless.

Dunno
If it's better than 2003... and career mode turns out good and it does involve changing formations tactics the way you want it, might be the best footie game until PES comes out.
