Crystal Chronicle slips in Japan...

Arguably the best game that wasn't Half-Life 2 at this year's E3, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicle had been set for release on July 18th in Japan. However, GameSpot reports that the game's official website has quietly knocked the game back until August 8th, offering no explanation for the change. Still, there's no need to worry just yet, because even the Euroshabby Nintendo probably realises the importance of releasing this one over here when they said they would - and not in March 2004, which would seem more realistic going on past experience...
