580.0. "NINTENDO IN THE UK." by WELPUT::MULGREW () Mon Jan 07 1991 04:20

    
    I just bought a Nintendo for Christmas and have been hooked ever since.
    One thing I did notice was that here in the U.K the system and games
    are just taking off. (Nintendo was the No 1 selling game system this
    year.) What I am finding is that whilst the gameset and games such as
    SMB and Zelda,Castelvania etc seem to have peaked in the US we back here
    in the UK can no longer get info on help routines and spoilers. 
    There also doesn't seem to be the same interest in the notes file as
    there  was a year or two ago. Any comments. 
    I would also like to ask for comments on setting up a seperate sale section
    for U.K buyers, as the majority of Classifieds seem to be the US
    variation..

    Dear All,
    
    I don't wish to be controversial.......but I think it's up to the
    Brits to make sure that there is activity in this notes file. The file
    will certainly take off when the Super Famicon shipments start in
    earnest, but we won't get those machines in the UK for 18 months at
    least. I hope our US friends will bear with us on this.
