Well maybe it's just here in Australia, but Metroid Prime is reaching our shores @ the convenient date of August 2003.

Isn't that great? We'll be about 80 by the time these games come out. I really can't wait.

So who else is excited?

it must be awesome living in Australia

Holy **** you dont get it till august? ike, i think i would die...

And there still isn't a date for Animal Crossing.

...that must suck so much. ;_;

GameMaster · 01-17-2003, 10:00 PM

I don't understand why its delayed. Shouldn't Australia receive it the same time as the U.S.? Theres no language difference so what's the hold up?

I doubt Nintendo will release Animal Crossing beyond the shores of Japan/US. They have already said that AC won't be released in Europe since its kind of pointless with AC2 coming to Japan and elsewhere this year. But good luck doing the agonizing wait for MP.

But isn't Metroid Prime coming out some time in March in Europe?

Not that it affects me, I already got mine

The reason for the delay is because the australian consoles are PAL and U.S are NTSC but to tell you the truth i cant see why it takes sooo long to change it.

Well, I understand the whole PAL/NTSC thing, but why isn't it being released around the time as the European version?

GameKinG · 01-18-2003, 02:43 PM

Thats awsome man! Im happy for you.

Angrist · 01-18-2003, 02:57 PM

:eek:

That really really sucks. I haven't heard anything about the EU version being delayed, so I still have good hopes.
I don't get it though, for EU they have to translate it to at least 2 other languages, sometimes 4 or 5. For AU they don't have to do that... so why the delay?

Got a link???

Nintendo should play their card!! By the time it comes out, every will have an XB with Splinter Cell!! That had a world wide release!

Nintendo screws gamers. I see that now.

It says TBA there. I just cant wait for the freeloader to release so I can get my games cheaper and earlier from canada.

Hey look at it this way... You guys got Doshin the Giant and we didn't.

GameMaster · 01-20-2003, 02:07 AM

We're going to get it though, right?

Dyne · 01-20-2003, 02:13 AM

Gah! I forgot about Doshin! I really want to play that game. ;_;
