Why O why is Europe always last ?
« on: February 09, 2001, 07:39:44 AM »
Why do we, guys in Europe, get to play the
cool games like Onimusha, GT3 and stuff ages
after United States and Japan.
I mean, we have to wait \'til summer.
And please don\'t give me the \' due translation\' argument.
C\'mon.. Don\'t you ppl think Europe should
get same release dates as US.
I\'m friggin tired of always having to wait longer ( mostly
6 months that is )
didn\'t buy my PS2 do get \'lessons in waiting/patience\'.

Third world nations like Europe usally don\'t get the stuff that the modern countries like US and Japan get until much later....  Just the way it is...

And If you can\'t tell I am only kidding...  :D

Holland!!!
were the best in the world baby.
but seriously now, the only reason besides translation and stuff is that the games are made in Japan or USA, the games that are made in Europe are released in Europe first, simple as that

Japan and the North America are bigger markets.

Partly true. Together they are a bigger market - but apart EUROPE is the biggest market. And it isn\'t even as \'maxed out\' as the US (I\'m not implying that the US market is maxed out, just that the EU one is even bigger = more potential). Sony sold more PSX in Europe than anywhere else (with the US as a close second).

Let me clarify. The \'European market\' is splintered, and different European countries are seperate markets to an extent. The U.S. as a Country is a bigger market than Germany, or France as countries. The European market as a whole is bigger, and has more potential obviously. But since the game industry doesn\'t market, or release the majority of it\'s products to Europe as a whole, it\'s not the same as the US as a whole, where a game is available at the same time, and marketed the same. A hit game in the U.S. is much more important to companies than a hit game in Germany, or Poland. But I digress...

Hmmm. I could complain that too :)

We unlucky europeans, and finns, get games much later. Example: Final Fantasy IX is coming out week 7 here!

Btw. I reserved a copy.

The only big problem with Europe for me is that some great games( Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Chrono Trigger, etc) were never launched here.

That problem really annoyed me in the 16-32 bit era, so i hope that this won\'t happen in the future.
