Korea gets the DS Lite today, while Japan just gets a couple of excellent new DS games. Where's the justice in that? We've already been lured by Wario the Seven's new Japanese TV ads and, of course, by its utterly stupid name. Now it's time to burn our Yen in the name of big moustaches. We'll also be lighting our notes for these newcomers/latecomers:
- Gears of War (we heard something about this game being "popular" in America; Xbox 360)
- Excite Truck (better late than never; Wii)
- Sekaiju no Meikyuu (Atlus' woody good RPG; DS)
- Shining Force Ikusa (no need to take turns; PS2)

Korea just now getting the DS Lite? Sales will skyrocket even more now!

I wonder if Gears of War will become popular for the 360 in Japan since it was inspired by RE:4. When does Lost Odyssey drop, anyone know? That should move some systems.
And for christ's sake, when does a good PS3 game come out? Cause Sony NEEDS to move systems. If the hardware sales are what I've heard for PS3, than Sony has sold only about 60% of their shipped consoles to Japan.
