Solatorobo is coming to PAL regions but is Region locked.

Post by Sadivinedevil »

When I saw the news that Solatorobo is coming to the PAL regions (basically the European countries) I was thinking I could import it and play it on my 3DS. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to be the case as the words "DSI enhanced" seem to be all over the game :( . These words technically mean that this version will only work with DS' in PAL regions because of region coding. Now the odd thing about this game is that it is being released for the PAL regions but not the American NTSC regions yet. Hopefully this game will be released in America so Americans don't get the short end of the stick. Anyway the news is very good regarding this game, but if Namco Bandai doesn't intend to release it in America (like they apparently did with .hack//Link) I'm sure some Cyber Connect fans will be buying PAL region DS'.

I'm sure there are others who live in the PAL regions. It would just suck if this game wasn't released anywhere else because it is region locked.

In all honesty, I'd rather it got released in stateside before being released over here, seeing as there are more of you guys over there that I know about than there are over here, and I value their happiness slightly above my own :E

Is Namco Bandai the publisher in Europe?

I think so but I'm not too sure. Here are some articles. The second one has a new trailer.

The publisher is actually Nintendo so there is definitely a high possibility that this game will be coming to america.
