Is this all confirmed?

Famitsu is reporting it as so and they're at the event, so I would hazard a yes.

Let's hope Europe isn't 2007, eh?Comment

As with the DS it looks like they're launching in USA before Japan. I really don't know why they're launching last again though. After years and years of saying they won't release after the PS3 it now seems they will be. Oh well, at least they won't be in Europe, maybe we'll get it first!

I don't understand the strategy of the date either (if you forget the late Christmas gift syndrome, which I'm not sure is prevalent to the same extent as in other places). It's risky if Nintendo were hoping to capitalise on disappointed unfulfilled PS3 orders to help boost launch sales, as there's every possibility Sony will be given incentive now to make sure the second shippment of PS3s hits Japan before the year is out and put some undeciders in two minds.
Maybe they don't care.Comment

No way.Originally posted by mr_sockochris
If Twilight Princess isn't confirmed for Japan in December then what of the US or European (considering localisation) releases?Comment

I meant 'unconfirmed' in that it appears that it IS due for launch but there's no date on this pic so it can't be confirmed 100% yet unless someone can translate that text.:

Now all we need is news about Corruption. I have a feeling it won't be launch in the US.Comment

It won't be a JPN launch game but I would be very surprised if it wasn't a USA/Euro one. Everything we've heard from it suggests it's well on time. JPN will be the only ones with Wario Ware this year though, just like Touched on the DS I suspect.Originally posted by Concept

Wasn't is about the same with the DS and the PSP? I'm sure the DS launched mid-Nov in USA then early Dec in Japan. Maybe history will repeatOriginally posted by simoran1

That and we have to take Sony's ever so strong word at the moment that significant shipments for the PS3 will come in before the end of the year.. when such proclamations are probably estimations of when decidely fraught diode problems are going to ease.
100,000-300,000 won't give Sony a vice-like grip on Japan from the off, put it like that.
Same goes for Nintendo (though they'll probably be more Wii units). It's all open out there.
