It's not a matter of where your servers are located but under what country your company is registered.

They'd have to open a whole new subsidiary in a different European country to bypass this problem.

OK thanks. Opening a company and transferring assets on paper like that can be done fairly easily though?


I can't be certain of that.  I'm also unsure just how broad that German law reaches.   By that I mean would a subsidiary, even based in a different coutnry, still be bound by the German laws of its parent company?   I can't say for sure if it would or not.  If it would still apply, then obviously even opening up shop (eShop that is) in a different country still wouldn't solve the problem. 

 

I'm pretty certain that Nintendo is looking at all their options.  If a viable solution is there, they will take it.

so why is this only happening now?  was there not a single m-rated game on wii ware?  

either way, nintendo should have recognized the issue earlier and taken action to rectify it.  

Basing on my very basic jusiprudence knowledge a possible explaination could be that th current German law became effective after the Wiiware service was introduced and it's not retroactive.

In other words it may be only appliable to products and services released after the law introduction.
