Question about Nintendos european distribution

[brucedes]

I was wondering if someone could fill me in on this. In, I think 2000, I read in what was still called N64 that nintendo would start distributing their own games in Europe, as opposed to using a third party company.


I was wondering if I remembered this right, and where I could find more information about it...

Generally yes they do. That's why they have Nintendo of Europe in Germany. There is like a tiny office of nobodies in the UK. Ninty even use a PR company for within the UK.

I think the 3rd Party who handled the above were known as 'THE GAMES'

I will have my revenge from the portuguese distributors (Concentra) when I get a hungry cow to eat their balls.

Wouldn't it be better for the cow to eat their balls? :p

Actually, it's also some sort of factory type place aswell, as it is where the European games & cases are assembled, unless of course an office of a few can do it:indeed:

Oh ok... I thought the manufacturing was done in the US and Japan. What you're saying makes sense. Either way, they need to shape the fuck up.

I got a portugese game recently.. I had a good laugh.. but if I was portugese I prolly wouldn't see the funny side.. the portugese instruction manual was pathetic

I think Koch Media distribute Nintendo games within the UK.
