Top news for europe!

Post by Mr Spoon »

Just read this over at http://www.consoledomain.co.uk . . . . . . . . .
One of Europe's leading independent distributors, Bigben Interactive, has announced an exclusive deal with Capcom.


The deal gives Bigben exclusive European distribution rights to Capcom's Dreamcast titles, now including Heavy Metal Geomatrix and Cannon Spike. All marketing, sales and PR responsibilities for these two Dreamcast titles will be handled internally by their respective divisions at Bigben Interactive.

Dick Francis, managing director of Bigben Interactive UK, said: "The deal allows us to bring more great software to a wider audience and highlights our rapid expansion in the console market, an area which will continue to see Bigben Interactive grow in the near future"
Hmm, Nice Capcom games hopefully comin our way ;)

Virgin and Capcom have a game by game deal, hence the reason you don't see ALL Capcom games in England. Virgin must think that the DC is dead and there is no point relasing those games, so this other company is going to do it for us :)

Does this mean we're likely to see a UK release of Capcom Vs SNK 2?

Because I reeeeeeeeally want it, and not sure if I want to put up with Japanese text...
