Anyone getting RE?

Got it paid for already!

RE...?

Racoon City? Not unless it turns out to be spectacular...

...so, no.

23rd March in EU.  Not sure when it's out over there.  I've ordered mine online so it will take a week or so for it to arrive here

Geek, to answer your question.

I was born in AU. "Raised" by two AU parents, though really it was a self-parenting job. Left AU at age 16 for the US. Became US citizen. Now hold dual citizenship.

Culturally I am more in line with the US since that is where I spent my formative adult years. Politically: socialist,  which is a large part of why I did not stay there, but the people are WONDERFUL, as is the beer and the baseball.  I love Australia, it is a wonderful place, but I've only been back here 3-4 years and it is still a bit foreign, and on the whole am socially rejected.

Given that you live around psychic bogans that's probably a good thing.

So basically all the places on that landmass are considered part of Britain except for Ireland, and they all have distinct accents and culture? The only person I've ever seen called Welsh was that Katherine Zeta Jones chick.

Yeah you got it.

England conquered Wales, joined with Scotland in a union which is why the flag is called the union jack as it is a combination of the English and Scotish flags. England is the red cross, which incidentally is why the health organisation is called the Red Cross.

The Union Jack is made up of the English, Scottish and Northern Irish flag.  They left out the welsh dragon because they thought that would make it too welsh.

Northern Ireland has a red X as a flag?

I just read this about the red X:

"Title: St. Patrick's Cross

Description: Even on St. Patrick's day, this flag is not widely flown by Irish people who, for the most part, do not recognise it as their own. It is seen as a British symbol, and is used by regiments of the British Army. [Additional note: The flag was first designed by British authorities in Dublin Castle in the 17th century as a counterpart to St. George's Cross. The flag also forms part of the coat of arms of the Duke of Leinster.]"

What on earth is SNK and everyone else involved with that Neo Geo handheld thinking? The pricepoint for this thing is  said to be no less than £200. Even with 20 games included that is insane. You can get that same collection bundled on PSN for $60. I am very very confused. 20 years later SNK still cant figure out how to price hardware.

The story says £99 which is $150 for a system with 20 pre-installed games.

What am I missing because I don't see it. The story mentions that Gameblaze, one of the companies involved, has another handheld console called the GameGadget that plays retro games for £99.99.  The Neo-Geo X is still unpriced, but they're speculating a limited edition version for £500 which seems ridiculous.

Wow....so they're going to wait until NEXT E3 in 2013. Imagine if Sony end up showing PS4 at this year's show? lol

Looks very likely now that Nintendo's new console is going to have a big head start. IMO a bad move on Microsoft's part...the machine's been out since 2005. No excuse to wait so long and with so little exclusives on the way.
