I heard that this game actually appeared in Japan before Trauma Center!

Anyways, this is good to hear because I've had this game on pre-order for AGES. First it was supposed to come out in June, then August, then October... then FINALLY it comes out in November. I mean, really... oh well, I guess I'll see if this game is really what it promises: Trauma Center, but with a healthy dose of Doctor-Nurse General Hospital melodrama.
