"Gone gold" means for a game to be finished....At that point the game is sent off to be printed/pachaged/shipped.

dbl post...sorry.

You guys are gonna hate me for this, but I hope it is delayed.... I won't be playing it until I graduate in May- so the more time they put into it the better the product will be in the end, when I actually get to play it.

They are delaying it because they are not going to have any console in NA when it comes out. It will shoot the demand Sky High and nintendo won't be able to capitalize in Feb... My bet is that they increased production in Nov, but the effect won't hit the market until Mid Feb... thus the delay.

I am gonna go out on a lib here to say nintendo has already increased production, and we will find out in March around the fiscals. It just makes no sense for them to burn 3-4 months before they increase production.

Screw it, they're always gonna be short on hardware...just give us the damn software! I'm pretty sure most of the Brawl buyers already own Wiis anyway.

 Left4Dead definitely intrigues me, but I'll probably wait for a couple reviews and/or opinions of my peers. If they pull it off, it could be awesome. But my skeptic side is influencing me.

Wow I really hope there isn't another delay... I mean Japan already has commercials for the game.

 Well then wait for reviews or peers' opinions.

It might not deliver on promises, but from what I've seen and from what I know about Turtle Rock and Valve's work, it'll be a great game.  A game better played with friends I'm sure.  Grabbing 3 friends will make a totally different experience than playing with bots or random people.

Strangely, that also applies to Smash Bros hehe.

I could've sworn I made this topic a few days ago. :/
