"A snippet from an older IGN Voice Chat Podcast…

We hung out with Reggie, and basically, he doesn’t think Disaster is a $50 game. Especially in terms of audio, which he said is laughable. He said he’s going to watch it and see how it performs in Europe. If it does well, you’ll probably get it in America, and if it’s a bomb, you probably won’t.

Damnit, Reggie…I want Disaster: Day of Crisis! Yes, the voice acting may be a bit silly…so re-record it for North American launch?! Pull some strings, you’re high up on the food chain. Nintendo let you, and you ONLY, protect their one DSi! Get it back, hold it for ransom, negotiate some money for Disaster localization, get some new voiceovers, and get the game out in the states!"

I don't get it. The translation is complete (it's out in the UK, Ireland, etc) as is the game, why not just bring it out here? Don't gimme that quality excuse Reggie, because A) you've allowed pure gutter filth like Ninjabread Man to be released and B) this game is pretty damn good, judging by the reviews I've read. Not the best game in history, but pretty good.

times a thousand.

Ninjabread Man wasn't Nintendo's so it didn't matter to them.

Disaster is Nintendo's (I believe) and if it is poor, then I see why he wouldn't want this all over the world.

Still, it would be nice to have had the choice.... fuckin' Reggie....

wtf? Is coming to Europe but Reggie says it's crap and wants to keep it out of the US? That's just WTF worthy.

Fixed.

QFT

Honestly, I don't care much about Disaster at all. I just think that if this doesn't come, then neither will Dynamic Slash (the Norse mythology Action RPG game at Nintendo's Oct. conference). And Disaster would sell really well here, so what the hell is he thinking?

I'd like to see Tingle's Rupeeland too. Is DS region free?

Yeah, it is.

Then I'm ordering that shit right now. How much is it over there? Obviously, since I'm American I'm gonna go for the UK version, so I figure some of you should know.

Play.com have it for £19.99, but thats UK only. I'd give Ebay a shot, most likely get it cheaper.

I'm no good translating British pounds to American dollars. So 19 British pounds would be....

£1 = $2 (or thereabouts).

If you go to Google at any stage and search for the term....

£1 in $

....it will tell you the conversion rate at that moment in time. It also works for other currencies too. Google is samrt.



EDIT: Just tried it, and currently its £1 = $1.6123, so £20 = $32.24. I'd still try Ebay though, as Play.com is a UK only site.

Yah, man. I'm doing this shit.

You think you can keep me away from the gay happy magical adventures of Tingle, Reggie? Ha! Think again!

so dumb. If he doesn't think it's worth $50 why not just sell it for $30???

Am I the only one who thinks NOA won't release this because it will scare away the grandma wagglers?

XD.... possibly...
