After a miniscule eighteen months, TC:SO has now been rated by the OFLC for release! Yes, it apparently takes that long to bring a completed game to the shores of ridiculous retail prices. Aussies are used to delays for other big name games like Super Paper Mario and Super Smash Bros. Brawl (which still isn't out), but this one really takes the cake. It's worth noting that there still isn't an actual release date -- it's merely been rated. So, is there potential for a two year Australian delay for a US launch title? You bet!
Forget the emergency room, this one is long dead.

Wow, that delay is stunning. Although, TC: NB is a great game.

Atlus doesn't have an office in any PAL regions, neither Europe or Australia. They need an agreement with a publisher there to release anything.

Uhhhh, guys - fail. The game's been out here since Christmas.
I know it's not exactly important for all you across the pond types to keep up with Australian release dates (take American / Japanese release date, add 1 year minimum and $50 to the price), but it is out here.
To be fair, though, it's not on the official Nintendo Australia website, but then Project H.A.M.M.E.R. is still listed as TBC, so I don't think anything but the real headline acts get maintained real well on there.
Cheers!
