If I didn't had a life I would go into hibernation mode untill past quarter 2.

That really sucks...

Looks we'll be having a US/Japan only VGChartz tournament on Feb.11...

I suppose a mod chip would be nice for you here.
You might have to re-buy the game in order to play online though.

 *starts saving money for a US vacation.. on  the 2nd thought Wii's are hard to find there, make it a ticket to Japan instead.

That sucks. Bigtime.

If this is true then Nintendo of Europe has lsot a customer when the 8th console generation begins.

What the fucking fuck? I mean seriously, this is the biggest game on the damn console. The sequel to the game that got me back into console gaming in the first place. -__-

There's not even a single reason why they couldn't release it within two weeks of Japan and the US. There isn't a great deal of text, and when they released Super Paper Mario in US five months before Europe, the disc already contained all the German, French etc versions.

I'm seriously going to hold a huge grudge over this, unless they give us a very, very good reason for it.

I would love to act all tough and start boycotting Nintendo over this delay (if it happens), but I'm not mad enough to go quite that far. Maybe was for 5 minutes after reading the rumour, but I never seem to be able to keep angry for long.

Besides, Trauma Center only consists of a single player game of under 10 hours with moderate replay value, and I pretty much did everything I wanted with it in the week I had it borrowed from a friend. Brawl has roughly the same, plus a multiplayer mode of infinite replayability, that I can't imagine ever getting bored with.

So yeah, hypocrisy FTW. =P

Confirmed. Nintendo = Damien; son of the Devil

I blame the internet:
