Post by: sylar on June 10, 2014, 18:52

Well, you people in Europe usually get the short end of the stick when it comes to game releases, so this is almost like an equalizer for you guys. Enjoy it a week early if it's true europeans.

Edit: Ignore my stupidity, I thought it said before and not after.

Blaze, I think you're confused. It's the other way around. Europe is apparently getting it later then everyone else. They are getting the short end of the stick again.

Most of me is angry, part of me is glad I'll know in advance which one to buy for the right exclusive mega stones. Bloody mega heracross, nobody wants you!

honestly, more recently we've actually had some nice releases come to Europe first. Xenoblade Chronicles, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, and a few other games as well. I'm just really dissapointed that Nintendo have made this big fuss about X&Y being a great international release, when actually they go back on that almost straight away.

I hope it's not true.

This'll suck so much because Richard'll be talking about it loads and I won't get it for a week after >_>

...I'll just order it off amazon, they usually screw up so badly I'll get it a week early anyways if I preorder xD

yeah you cant even order it in from another country since its region locked lmao

like with x/y i ordered from tesco thinking id get it like 5 days early and they only gave me it a day early, i doubt theyll be any different this time around.

rip the days you could order ds games from the US so you could play them like 2 months before your scrub friends.

Don't worry my fellow PUKers. I swear I will not spoil the story for any of you until the game is released in your land!

sylar, it's one of those rare times you get a pokemon game before us. Please enjoy it instead of being bitter.

Shush you're not supposed to stick up for them

Shame though, though I can handle a week I suppose.

1. I'm a nerd and proud of it.
2. I know we get earlier releases, but by the time I get the money, you people already have it over in Europe.

I won't be able to handle it if this happens. It's like when a country gets the next instalment of a book series before UK and the spoilers are all over the internet before it's even out. This better not be true, I can't handle a week (lol how pathetic) :-(

my wish on an eyelash came true at last, it was "because i had to wait till feb 2014 to play pokemon X and no-one shut up about it i want everyone else to suffer like me next time cos im spiteful"



but seriously tho if its true tho then ?????????????
they co-ordinated a worldwide release before, like i tried to look for european public holidays that would be screwing with the release date but apart from some thing in spain i couldn't find much so who even knows, maybe the world is annoyed at us electing ukip or something


like with x/y i ordered from tesco thinking id get it like 5 days early and they only gave me it a day early, i doubt theyll be any different this time around.

i got mine 4 days late when i preordered black 1, needless to say my one sole bad experience has put me off preordering FOREVER

i think i got white 2 a day early with amazon iirc

but this sucks they managed to do a co-ordinated release for x and y, so why not or/as? i mean they're remakes anyway so why not just release them at the same time

It's funny how we forgot to mention that South Korea is probably waiting until December for this. Yeah, two weeks or so after America.

Also, back then we were pretty much complaining about waiting for months for a game to come out. But globalisation had made the world smaller, and we are now complaining about a few days.

well that's because globalisation still hasn't made the internet slower than the arrival of physical goods. I don't particularly care that Americans get it earlier, but I dislike having to avoid the internet for a week. IDK, I guess it's a first world problem
