    Default Americans get all the good games 1st

    Why do they get all the good games first.
    We're the same language and why do they need to change the ratings because RE4 is 15 here and is 18 there.

    We're basically all the same arent we ?

    JP has aload of new games hit there first. Consoles vary depending on make, and normally hit the JP or US. JP for the Wii, US for PS3.

    America gets things first (well, before we do) because they all speak English. In Europe we have English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, and quite a few more. It's just a lot more translating to do. Well, that and the fact that Nintendo and Sony, among others, seem to hate Europe.

    Indeed. Converting PAL games to all the languages takes time and we can't avoid that. But what I'd like is for games to be region-free, or maybe you should just port.
    Seriously.
