European release date for FZGX!
Post by Webmaster on Jun 12th, 2003, 3:00pm

I found an October 2003 date for F-Zero GX in Europe:

I also found the same date at another site, so that's good enough for me!

I think its mainly speculation, and rumours spread so finding it on several sites shouldnt mean too much... I want an official exact date!

Generally, there are a few sites that update their release date lists based on press releases from Nintendo, then the other sites copy from those sites. So the speculation is usually done by Nintendo and their game-making affiliates, then they realize that they can't meet that deadline, and push the date back.

Yep I guess you're right, but the source of speculation is also now and then stores. A date on their website atracts orders, don't you think? It's all a matter of wich store can put the earliest date, without it seeming too unreal

I guess I'm just not that cynical. I presume that stores get their info from the distributors, who get their info from the manufacturers.
