I'm honestly looking forward to Secret Command coming to NA VC. I remember there being some licensing BS around the naming (Rambo, here in the States), but I hope they get passed it.

Uhh...dude, NA got Water Warfare this past Monday.

I think that EU/NA both get the shaft just because we don't know what is coming out monthly like Japan

That's better! Games I want that EU has and NA doesn't:
Mario's Super Picross
Devil World

Just two! Is that so hard? Of course, I did have to go and pick import titles...

Oh, plus NyxQuest, actually. Add one WiiWare. Still, that's only three games total from those lists, yet I'm sure we'll get some of the other stuff on the list first.

Translation? NA gamers stop complaining about EU releases!

Actually,Secret Command hs been rated by ESRB. But it is not under the Rambo name. Bascially,we Americans will get the European version which makes sense.
Oh,and come on NOA release Super Smash Bros.!

Mario's Super Picross (SNES) Nintendo I don't think was ever a NA release,
so it may be a fun IMPORT title.

The first game I remember (enjoyed) playing was Jumpman (C64) Epyx
so I would probably pick-up that title if it was ever released.

Nice thread, yo.

America is better.

Oh, that's not was this thread is about, is it?

I honestly do not understand why it has to be so different all the time.

Europeans want what America has and vice-versa.

It is a bunch of BS if you ask me.

We do?

4. Asphalt 4: Elite Racing (6-12-09)
5. Sudoku 50! For Beginners (6-26-09)
6. Brain Challenge (7-3-09)

Right now I think EU are getting the short end of the stick for DSiware

Only thing I want that Europe has is Super Smash Bros.

Once this Hanabi Festival finishes, there will be ZERO games I care about available in North America but not Europe. So I think I can complain about the two games I want if I want to.

The only games I want that EU has and we don't are Pulseman, Devil World, and Icarian. Other than that, I'm good to go.

I'm more then jealous,EU has Super Smash Bros!!

its sad that NA wont get ESWAT: City Under Siege i loved the game in the arcade

I'm looking forward to MUSHA (hoping against all odds that they make it 60hz only) and would like to see Eduardo the Samurai Toaster if only for the great name.

Except for games that Europe has to wait for a Hanabi Festival for, the gap between Europe and America is quite narrow with only the C64 stopping the gap from becoming even narrower (I strongly suspect that America will be recieving a steady flow of C64 games soon). As far as Europe is concerned with regular releases, there are very few that America has already that we have yet to get so in that respect, the future looks kind of interesting.
