Japan gets it first because they created Pokemon. So naturally of course they would always get everything Pokemon first.

They created it of course. If you created something, wouldn't it be fair if you get it first before other people?

Considering it's developed in Japan, it only makes sense that it's released there first. It also has to be translated and all that jazz. And in Pokemon, there's a lot to translate. Dialouge, pokemon names, moves, items... So, obviously, it takes longer for it to come out in English cus of that as well.

I don't know, maybe it's because Pokemon games are made in Japan? Maybe.

Well, Nintendo is a Japanese company, the programmers are Japanese, and Japan is one of their biggest markets. It just makes sense.

Ok, so it is manufactured in Japan, and sent to us, where we have to do all the translating and test the game to a further extent

This thread made me literally stand up on my chair and point and laugh at my monitor.

Japan is the creator of Pokemon and owns everything to do with it, so they get it first, it's their choice whether they want to send it out to be translated for lucky folks like us.

Region related. And by that I mean regions of the world.

Like I have a Region 3 DVD player and a universal DVD player.
And as for England, that is no argument. Move to Australia.
Then I can understand your Pokemon complaints better. They are the end of the region train.

They are not, New Zealand is, we have to wait for Australia to get games then we they get shipped to New Zealand and they're expensive since the price covers the Australian shipping fee.

But anyway @TC did you think Pokemon was made in England? Because I didn't think anyone in their daft minds would think of a question like this unless they thought it was made in England or Pokemon wasn't created by the Japanese.

All Pokemon games are made and manufactured in Japan.
So, its only fair that they get it first.
