Wow. Proof then that at least Australia should be getting Nintendo games at the same time as North America.

Not at all, Importation taxes are high in Australia, it\'s a simple as that, the fact it is the same product means nothing.

Ouch. I guess Nintendo will be replacing Animal Crossing DS games then.

Plus, Australia uses the same TV format as Europe : PAL ! In fact in think that Australian Wii AC are just NTSC games forced into PAL Mode by some tweaking (you can do it using an homebrew tool so it has to be possible to do it in 100% official games as well).

Even less reason for me to get this then. My ACWW is NTSC.

EDIT: Nintendo majorly screwed up huh?
