Afrika priced and dated
Here it is. Be sure you’re sitting in case you foul yourself. According to this Kotaku piece, Afrika will release in Japan on August 28, priced 5980 yen.
SCEE’s already said this isn’t going to make it to Europe, so you’d better get importing.
Provided you can stand the tension of waiting for the post. You could spare yourself the pain by flying to Japan on August 27, sitting outside a game shop and waiting for it to open, buying a PS3, getting a hotel room a week, taking thousands of pictures of fucking zebras, realising how futile the entire exercise was, how dull the game actually is, then jumping off the Tokyo bridge in self-disgust.
Just saying.

Not a word on any Euro distributor for this?
The price (seeing the USD translation, and bearing in mind that I thought it would be a disc-based game anyway, judging by the recent trailer) really isn’t surprising, (or off putting, Mr Author. :p)

I don’t think it’s going to get over here at all, to be honest. Play-Asia, innit.

Yeah, there are a bunch of different options, if it comes to it.

I think you meant to say ‘Yesasia’ or even ‘Renchi’ as Playasia doesn’t ship to Europe or the UK (so stuff them).

Eh? I’ve bought games from Play-Asia before and I live in the UK.

Don’t bother importing the Japanese version, just wait to see about a US release. The Japanese version would be fairly pointless if there are animal profiles, like in Endless Ocean.
