Scribblenauts UK date changed News

DS News by Robert Purchese

28 August, 2009

Warner Bros. has confirmed to Eurogamer that Scribblenauts won't be released in the UK until 9th October. The US will be able to buy the game a couple of weeks earlier, from 15th September.

This has apparently been common knowledge for a couple of weeks, but we thought we'd tell you anyway because we hadn't not noticed the change.

Scribblenauts is the wonderful DS game that lets you spell out and conjure almost anything to overcome a problem.

There's much more about the hottest DS property in our hands-on Scribblenauts impressions from July.

Perhaps they should have written the release date properly, instead of just scribbling it somewhere.

Bugger. Was hoping it was coming late September. Now it's very close to Mario RPG3's release date.

So that'll be lots of people grabbing it from torrent sites on the 15th, then?

I heard a lot of pirates saying they were actually going to buy this because it was so awesome. I doubt half of those people will buy the game now.

I wonder if you write "Europe", it'll draw a big middle finger? Just a thought, like.

I really hope the delay in release dates doesn't effect its sales due to piracy. This is a fairly big risk for the DS, a brand new IP from a western developer/publisher, whom in general tend to avoid the DS. Just Remember the more you pirate the games you like, the less likely the games you like will be made. Or some shit like that. ^_^

Can we at least get the pre-order hat now then?

Being forced to wait AND missing out on cool bonuses just increases reason to import.

Edge tore into it during last months preview for the controls being terrible. Im hoping the delay is so they can sort out some sort of D-Pad + Stylus scheme and make sure it plays great. If now, its still gonna be a great "What if x and x had a fight" simulator.

Wow. That'll not end up on R4s at all... Seriously, cut the crap now, games companies - give the UK/AUS/NZ the US relesases and do other languages separately. Delays like this just lead to imports, and that hurts the numbers.

Importing is one thing, at least the developers are still getting the money. Let's not restort to stealing though, hm?

Yet another import. When was the last time I bought a PAL DS game? I don't KNOW!
