Nintendo were publishing it in Europe, but then something came up that stopped them. I'm thinking it may be something to do with the lawsuit

Basically, what happened was that they spoke to a couple of people "at Nintendo" and they saw no problem with it, but decided to not contact the legal department because they can "shut things down so quickly". Obviously Nintendo's legal department then had a problem with it, as no matter what when raising money, even if for charity, you ask for permission. Unfortunately, people are no misconstruing Nintendo wanting to stop it to be Nintendo attempt to shut down EVO -_-

The launch window doesn't extend to July. It ended in April. It's just that several games from said launch window got delayed to outside of it

Iwata has clearly said that we haven't seen everything

No, it's just the only game out in that timeframe that we know of

Apparently people close to EVO's PR say it was on EVO's side

That's more of a translation from Japanese to English. They don't use the term "IP" there, except in regards to an Internet Protocol address

Pre-orders don't mean a damn thing though. The 3DS and Wii U broke pre-order records and look what happened there.

Yeah, I never noticed it here either. On playing it again, it makes it actually a tighter platformer as it snaps you into a direction which makes precision platforming much easier Besides, it's 16 not 8

I'll just import from Australia if Europe doesn't get it. Though I was wanting to download this one

Fun fuct. In the original vision for Super Mario Bros., Mario did have various weapons including a gun

This week in Japan Breath of Fire 2 Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 Next week in Japan Donkey Kong Donkey Kong Jr.

Yeah, some of the over-reactions to this are ridiculous. I saw people demanding their donation back. I saw people saying that this shows Nintendo doesn't support cancer research I saw people say that this is evidence that Nintendo doesn't have decent network structure (?) I saw people calling for a boycott of Smash Bros games from now on. I saw people question why Nintendo are doing this instead of marketing the Wii U (like they're all one department in there) I know firsthand how literal Nintendo of America's legal department can be. That's all this was. EVO didn't fulfil legal obligations in requesting/notifying Nintendo of America about their intent. Legal said no as they would do. This has since been overturned

Yeah I loved it. Worth a download on the 3DS if you have a few quid to spare

Wario was the villain in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins where Wario had taken over Mario's castle and hidden the coins used to enter it while Mario was off saving Daisy in Sarasaland. He's essentially Mario's rival. Various publications like Nintendo Power claimed they were cousins, but that has never been officially stated

I'm still wondering what the story is, since we have Peach as playable. Please don't be Bowser kidnapping Daisy...

You forget that this is Nintendo. While that is possible, they'd rather the game have no online than online that isn't consistently top quality, especially after Smash
