New Donkey Kong SP for Japan
« on: June 09, 2004, 09:00:31 PM »
It's super limited too.

Nintendo of Japan will be celebrating the simultaneous release of Donkey Konga 2 and Donkey Kong Country 2 with a special contest. Gamers who pick up either of the games can enter to win a special "Donkey SP" Game Boy Advance SP system. Each game comes with a contest entry form. Gamers can send in the forms for a chance to win one of 1000 limited edition Donkey SP systems. The system is colored yellow with maroon buttons. Here's a picture.

How come Nintendo don't do these kind of offers & competitions in other countries apart from Japan?

I think it's probably up to NOA's marketing team to decide whether or not they do something like this in North America.  I may be wrong, though, maybe they asked NCL for some funky-coloured GBAs and Iwata said, "No, they are too good for you American scum!"
That's my opinion, not yours.

You think NOA is bad, try NOE. It never has news on its own company before its released elsewhere.

IT DOESN'T MATTER!!!....What DOES matter however is the fact that a sequel to Guardian Heroes is going to be released exclusively for the GBA!!

Jale: Hey, at least we get more SP colors than NA. I got my Blacky before the color was even out in America.

The lack of GBASP colors might be revenge for WW2...
