It took a little bit of prodding but someone has gotten a longer answer out of Nintendo Australia today regarding software delays sparked from Aaron Daviess report. Speaking to Kotaku Australia, Nintendo Australia has now expanded its comments on the ...
Official Response:
We apologise for the inconvenience that Nintendo fans are experiencing compared with people outside of their region.
Localisation and PAL conversion processes often make these delays unavoidable. Although in some instances PAL versions have made it to the markets faster than the versions of other regions – for example Mario Strikers Charged Football and Battalion Wars. We are currently making efforts to minimise the time needed for localisations, as we understand that the difference in worldwide release dates is frustrating to fans.
Nintendo Australia is aware of the problem and the complaints we have and are working towards parity with the rest of the world. Unfortunately no time frames are given but it wont be solved anytime soon by the looks of it.
Thank you Nintendo Australia for respecting us enough to give a decent response, even if it took a little prod.
