Nintendo is going slap-happy congratulating itself on the “successful” European launch, with a reporting sell-through of over 325,000 consoles in 2 days. A great start, if this were say, the UK launch. This was for all of Europe, which as usual is being screwed by Nintendo. Don’t get me wrong, my heart beats Mario-red, but to hell if this is a successful launch when I can’t go out shopping in one of the major European capitals (Vienna, Austria) and even see evidence that a Wii launch occurred. No games, no accessories, no allocated shelf space, maybe signage if the store is really on the ball, but, little else. I can’t wait to see how much of a “success” the PS3 launch will be here in Europe.

CABAL Online, the huge massive multiplayer RPG from South Korea, has gone live in Europe, bringing it’s unique brand of Eastern fantasy to the EU territory, a hard market to crack for any MMORPG without the word “Warcraft” in it’s name. CABAL’s edge is it’s intuitive console-style hack and slash combat and stunning good looks, though preliminary reviews from the US beta event has mentioned the problems with it’s small game world. CABAL Online is currently offering a 7 day free trial, allowing players to try before they buy as well as several other offers allowing players to refer friends in exchange for free credit.
