March 3, 2005 - Retail sources have indicated that Wario Ware Twisted, Nintendo's upcoming mini-game compilation with a "twist" sensor in the cartridge, will slip out of its current March 21st release date.

Currently, some retailers -- including EB Games -- are listing the game with a new April 21st release date. Retail sources have indicated that even this date might not be final, with the game possibly slipping even further into 2005.

Though the reason for the delay is unknown, we assume that Nintendo's widening the gap between this game and the just-released Wario Ware Touched on the Nintendo DS to give the DS version a bit more time in the light.

Contacts within Nintendo still stand by the March 21st release date, however, unable to comment on the retailers' adjusted dates.

We'll have more on this much-anticipated GBA release as it's made available.



FUCK NO

 

[Jumpman Jr.]

Noooooo!

 

[Amir0x]

I guess it's to give the DS version some time to flourish in the US?

 

[Mejilan]

Disappointing, but if it means that's $35 less I'm spending next month, that's OK. TOO much sh-t is coming out in the 2nd and 3rd weeks of March.

 

[Wario64]

SCREW THE DS! DS = PDA! WHO CARES!!! GIVE ME WARIO WARE TWISTED

 

[Swat]

Good - it wouldn't have got much lovin on around the week of the 24th anyway, if you know what I mean.. April is fine with me.

 

[Jonnyram]

Conspiracy theory: big DS title coming out on Mar 21 to attack PSP, so they don't want to kill Wario sales.

 

[fugimax]

Good call, Nintendo.

I love WarioWare...but 2 releases back to back could only serve to confuse casual customers and lower sales. Best to wait a month or two...I'd go for May personally.

edit: I should clarify that these aren't my personal reasons for endorsing the delay...just that from a business point of view it's a good move. In my eyes it's good as well because I have plenty of time left in WarioWare: Touched! and another WarioWare right now would be way too fast for me. I can understand people who don't have DS and are dying for new warioware being pissed though..

 

[bjork]

Glad I got the import.

 

[Amir0x]

SCREW THE DS! DS = PDA! WHO CARES!!! GIVE ME WARIO WARE TWISTED

Wario Ware Twisted IS fun.

 

[Drakken]

Aw......well, I guess that's not too bad. Touched! will last way past then anyway.

 

[6.8]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. It was the only game I had actually decided to buy in March.

 

[The Faceless Master]

that sucks.. so what if it may be good for business..

 

[SantaC]

Wario Ware Twisted IS fun.

you mean touched

 

[atomsk]

one less thing to buy in march thank god

i think 8 games is enough... jeebus

 

[Amir0x]

you mean touched

No, I meant Twisted. He said GIVE ME TWISTED, and I was just saying that Twisted is fun. Basically, just a statement of understanding for his desire

EXACTLY what I thought. God of War+PSP+Lumines+jungle beat+twisted= more money spent in fucking MARCH than November. I welcome this delay.

 

[Duck of Death]

Touched! sucks. Screw the DS.

 

[Wario64]

DS and GBA is targeted at two different audiences! Why delay Wario Ware Twisted?!

DS sux!

What's this about "3rd Pillar"?!?!?! If this is the reason for the rumored delay then Nintendo can fuck right off. As much as I love their games, I'm growing more and more hateful of their business decisions.

 

[mightynine]

April 21st is a Thursday. Isn't that an unusual day for a game to come out?

It is a b-day though...would make a nice present.

 

[sammy]

Hey, that's the day after Hitler, Napoleon, Oaklohoma city bombing, Columbine shooting, and my birthday!

yay for presents :lol

Dear Nintendo,

BITCH, I'VE KILLED FOR LESS. SHIP THE CRACK, NOW.

Shut up Wario64, Wario Ware Twisted sucks, Touched is by far much better. Got the two games and Twisted is lame close to Touched.

Fuck Twisted.

Every time you hate on the DS, Nintendo delays Twisted another month.
