Default New releases in Europe

When are they going to happen? Alongside WiiWare releases? Combined with VC releases? Or will Nintendo even dare the final step and introduce DSi weeks in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, eventually further lowering the number of VC releases to 1 per 3 weeks?

The way it looks like, they'll happen at the same time as the Wii updates.

WiiWare or VC?

Instead of the Wii-kly Update, it's the Nintendo Download... see example.

That's how it's done in NA, but it's not the subject of this thread.
Europe gets its WW and VC games in separate weeks, so I'm wondering where Nintendo is gonna squeeze in the DSiW releases. I highly doubt they'll suddenly put everything together like they always did in NA.

You are forgetting that Wiiware and VC are on the Wii, which is a completely different console from DSi

I don't see anywhere in his post that he forgets that. I just see him wondering what kind of regular release schedule DSi games are going to see.

Nintendo of Europe made a dumb decision of doing its WiiWare games one week and Virtual Console another. I like every of those sections (VC, WW) updated every week, just like in North America and Japan. It's just a pain to wait for a extra week for games you possibly want in those areas in the Wii Shop Channel, and sometimes they only get a single game in a two week span.

Thanks, Yogurt.

Maybe stardust should have read my posts just a tiny bit closer instead of eye-rolling.
