That's right ladies and gentlemen. Zelda fans of the world will finally be jealous of Europe.
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap is not only the first completely new Zelda game for the GBA (why on earth has it taken over three years?), it is also the first ever Zelda game to debut outside of Japan.
It will be available in Europe from November 26th, while Uncle Sam and the Land of the Rising Sun will have to wait until the ever-vague Q1 2005.
In other words.....Nuh, nuh nuh-nuh nuh!
WE GET MINISH CAP FIRST!

Hah! For once we get something first, though I'm still pretty miffed why Animal Crossing took so long.

Good thing the GBA isn't region-specific. If I get tired of waiting, I'll just import it.

I'm a brit, and as nice as minish cap's release is (not that I am anticipating TMC as much as other Zelda Games) We still have no release date for Four Swords Adventures.

Meh. Importing can't possible cost much. We'll probably be able to just get it from Amazon.uk for 10 extra bucks.

Nom is a big pile of poop, apart from when they made inflatable bullet bills! *goes off to throw it a friends*
As a UK guy, i read Edge, by far the most consistant and truthful, although they can be realy harsh sometimes.

Twice! Once about the game being released in Europe first and a second time in saying that TMC was coming out on November 12th! Evil, lying, over-priced magazine! The scum!

See this sword NOM UK? I shall use it to slice you in two, you lying scum!

YAY!! We gets it before the Americans!! Party time!! 
:bowser: :sword: Anyways, do that mean it'll be translated into Brittish (over here at least)? And will it then use classic words like faerie instead of fairy? I'm so excited!
Hah, I bought it at a game shop in Sweden that sold an import version of it. B)
EDIT: Actually, TMC is released three days after my birthday. B)

Mind you- Hiroshima and Nagasaki was how we reacted when they attacked our colonies. But our video games? That's person.

Yeah, they attack a millitair base at Hawaii (sounds like kawaii, lol) and your country react by blasting two cities into pieces. OK, maybe not that bad, but still...
EDIT: But it did stop communism from reaching Japan, and we wouldn't have gotten Zelda or Nintendo if it had.
