Posted April 28, 2006 Koch Media.. http://www.kochmedia.co.uk/history.html?rid=1672668768910722483287 (Pronounced 'cock' Media if you don't get it) I'm pretty sure this is true, I don't see why they would put it on their site if it wasn't.

Posted April 28, 2006 I'm pretty sure it is pronounced 'cock'. I've spoken to their PR guys a couple of times and they've never said anything when I've pronounced it 'cock' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 28, 2006 Hi all. Since i'm the manager of an independent games retailer and have met the koch team, i thought i'd let you know that "koch" is said in the same way as j j okocha, the bolton striker. And also, although koch were appointed as preferred distributer, nintendo still use centresoft and gem. Just thought you would all like to know, as otherwise, it does sound wierd.!!

Posted April 28, 2006 Nintendo made a big announcement about Koch media taking over distribution ages ago, can't believe you didn't know.but... what does it mean, really? better service? more stock? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 29, 2006 "Partner".. It doesn't mean anything except perhaps more profits for Nintendo over their previous distribution model. Perhaps the one that was blamed for some of the failures of the GameCube in the UK market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 29, 2006 Well Koch Media is a pretty big EU publisher. Spellforce 2, X3: Reunion, Trackmania are a few games they handle. I am not sure how to explain but since it is a brand name you don't say "cock" it is the german word "Koch" which means "cook" in english but is pronounced different. It is hard to explain how "ch" sounds in englisch ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
