World of Goo boxed up in Europe

Europeans can't handle the whole "download" thing. No, they have to have their game all wrapped up in a neat little pack-age! Despite the fact that World Of Goo is to be a WiiWare title in North America, a release list for Nintendo Europe showed the game coming as a full retail version!
Speaking to WiiWare World, 2D Boy's Ron Carmel said "Our European publisher, RTL Playtainment, is planning to release both the Wii and PC versions as retail titles." Well, this means 2D Boy has opted to include extra content in the retail version, unavailable in North America and Japan -- though the amount of bonus stuff is still undecided. Find out for sure when the game hits Europe in Q3 2008.

So...what you're saying is we may need to import this?

Good luck with that, cause the FreeLoader doesn't work anymore.

I think the homebrew channel has a Freeloader though...

OK, dammit, my first comment never showed no matter how many times I refreshed. Oh well.

I wonder how much it will retail for? If there is a discrepancy in price between the virtual download and the physical disc, I hope it won't be too great.
Games on physical media are still my preference, so that will be a deciding factor if I pick this game up - which I probably will.

Even a high priced WiiWare title would only be about £10, and there's no WAY they'll sell a retail one for that much.
This is 100% a "MONEY MONEY MONEY!!!" decision.
