I only did it last time because knowing that I could be playing the game 3 months earlier than it would even see light of day in the US was just too tempting.
One month? Nah, not a big deal.

I think I'll import...when JFA came out it was a test to see whether the series would continue, or at least that was what it felt like. Now, with the sales of JFA and GS4 in Japan, I'm pretty sure the series is safe, or at least relatively safe. Despite the fact that I've already spoilt quite a lot of T&T, I would like to keep away from what I haven't spoilt. And it is fun tricking my mates into believing that I can read Japanese by 'translating' the manual...

And i'd rather have a japanese cover.
Damn. I need to get money before August 23 since i'm broke... why is manga always so expensive?

My inner-Godot fangirl is impatient, such is life. Besides, a Japanese cover wouldn't destroy my collection, because I have already a PAL PW1 and a US PW2...

On that same note; the Japanese game will ship with English dialogue, just like the previous DS rereleases in this series.

He not arguing with anyone. He's stating that the fact that there's only one month in a difference in release date and it's a bit stupid to order it in. Also being in Europe sucks for games.

Yeah, I know, but I did say titles. I'd rather have Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Trials and Tribulations than Gyakuten Saiban 3. The inconsistency would be annoying.

Yes but my initial post was saying that I wouldn't be either. I was just using my experience with Gyakuten Saiban 2 as a different issue since the time-gap between its Japanese and US releases were far apart enough to warrant an import. This time, they're so close to each other that it doesn't really matter.

The wait for JFA almost killed me ;_; I almost broke my resolve and imported it from Play-Asia. It's funny, actually, in that because it took so long for it to be translated into German and French and what have you, I almost completely forgot when the release date was =D (I only realised when I saw it in the store and had a nerdgasm)

Your not alone. Im in Canada too
I pre-ordered it, and they told me it'll come out Sept. 1
Of course, on Wikipedia, it DOES say Sept. 4, but it also says it on Gamespot.
So yes, It's around Sept. 1-4, don't worry.

Sadly, I'm going back to school in the fall when it's released (f**k).
Can't buy imported online yet and don't know anyone who has GS3 for sale.

I'm pretty sure it's because they're the smallest gaming market out of the major three (Japan, US, Europe), but I could be wrong.

It's because Europe speaks more than one language. The UK release msut come with at least French on it as well. Then, usually, a second version is made in German, Spanish and Italian. There's alot lot translate, which means we get many things late.
Which fails hard. My game boxes are already messed up with US and EU game boxes. Damn things are different!

By the way, there is a great console shop around that imports games from the U.S. :)
That's how I'm gonna get T&T,

Yeah, but there are games that require minimum translation but still will be released almost one year later after the game's US release. This is the case of Megaman ZX and Elite Beat Agents, they just got released here in Europe, almost 9 months later. Compare it to JFA, a heavily teaxt-based game. It was released here three months after its release in US, with French added and so on. I don't believe it's the entire reason.
It think it's the combination of carelessness and the required translations (and for console games; the conversion to PAL video format.) Europe is the smallest market, that's true, but not that small. Nintendo Ds has sold almost 9 millions units here, compared to the 12 millions sold in US and the Americas.
I think the truth is, some game publishers don't care about us enough *cough*PS3*cough*
[/end of rant]
Either way, I preordered GS3. Now that Apollo Justice is confirmed, there's no real need to worry about how good cash T&T will make. Let us focus on buying AA4 instead when it comes out.
