Yesterday Nintendo Europe released a press release announcing the release date for Metroid Prime Pinball for the Nintendo DS - which we thought was a bit odd considering the game came out over 18 months ago, but no, Europeans have had to wait for the game for this long (I'm sure if they really wanted it they would of imported by now). The most shocking thing, however, was Nintendo Europe's response to the whole thing. More Inside.
""Nintendo of Europe simply chose to release the game at this time."", said the spokesman. There must be something more to the story, as I doubt Nintendo would wait this long to release a game that has little translation required and could have filled one of the many gaps earlier in the year.
