Why does Europe and Japan get the game last?

[coolfighter1993]

This isn't fair! NA gets it on the 31 on January, Japan on the 2nd and we on the 3rd of February! They get to play it before us! Like usual, Europe gets fucked in the ass! I mean, it is made by the Japanese and they get it later than NA.

I'm sick of being discriminated against!

Strangely enough the game is more Popular in NA than JA. Could be why. I dunno.

And if you wonder why the release dates are Tuesdays in the US, this episode of Pach Attack might give you an answer for that:

Because Europe has been a bad girl. A very very bad bad girl...

 

[Synraii]

Because US gamers need the head start and cry like little bitches if they don't get everything first.

That's a bit extreme, childish, and stupid of you to post a topic like this. They aren't doing it on purpose or on accident. I don't know where you get the idea that it's discrimination. I can understand if they said something like "Americans get it first because *insert reason here*". But they're just following the procedures on releasing it however they please. And if they were discriminating, there isn't much to say but to shrug it off. The real world is not always fair.

Basically coolfighter, you're coming off as a spoiled brat with no common sense in this topic. I know you're expressive, but please use common sense to know what your topic will come off as. I found this topic offensive because it has a potential to have many people say "deal with it" to you and you will explode. That's not good, comrade. Besides, you'll get the game eventually.

Why couldn't they just release it on the same day?

Namco are the childish ones.

The problem with this statement, is you're coming off as a spoiled ignorant brat. Unless you know some person who works in Namco and how they operate and can provide proof I would believe you. But chances are you don't. So how are they childish?

They are the ones making the game. You didn't make it. They can decide when to release it. You can't. They are the producers. You are a consumer.

Savvy?

This has nothing to do with Namco, it has to do with distribution schedules. Economics. As someone had already mentioned; Games release in North America on Tuesdays, this means it has to be in the warehouse the week prior.

Releasing on Thu/Fri in Europe/Japan respectively means the game has to be in the warehouse generally the same week, instead of the week prior.

Simple economics. Not preferences, not favoritism.

Sources: Observation (and also, I'm a warehouse manager at the moment, so I'm extra qualified.)

Thank you for your input.

You're complaining that NA gets SCV a mere 3 days before of Japan, while some Jrpgs can take as long as one to two years to be brought over to the US?
