I suppose we’ll call this game Rodea: The Sky Soldier from here on out, as it looks like the game will be localized in North America.

This information comes from Nintendo UK’s David Yarnton…

“We’ve still got to nail down the exact titles, because one of the big things when we look at a global launch – all of the markets in the space of four weeks – is trying to get a whole range of titles ready for launch. So we’re pretty close. In the next week or so we’ll be able to say ‘these are the exact launch titles’. We’re close but not quite ready to get exact titles. It’s a combination of looking at third-party as well. We’re launching with more titles than we probably ever have and it’s a matter of trying to get that breadth but also being fair to everyone.”

This entire situation with launch games has been rather strange. I just don’t know why everything hasn’t been figured out at this point!

This trademark was discovered in the US trademark database…

Hmm… Rodea the Sky Soldier sounds a lot like Tenku no Kishi Rodea. Perhaps XSEED will bring the game overseas?

Earlier today, Nintendo of Europe explicitly stated that the 3DS’ eShop and Internet browser will be available on launch day through a simple firmware upgrade. But strangely, the situation might be different in North America. NoA’s Charlie Scibetta said the following about the two applications:

“Games and services offered by Nintendo can vary by region. Nintendo of America will release additional information about Nintendo eShop, including timing, content and pricing, at a later date.”

It’s definitely an odd statement. Might we really see the 3DS eShop/web browser in Europe right away, but not in North America? Only time will tell…
