PAL regions joining World of Goo tomorrow
We called it, and now those lovely 2D Boys have confirmed it: World of Goo will be rocking Europe, Australia, and New Zealand's WiiWare service this coming Friday, a.k.a. tomorrow! Eeee!
You may recall that the puzzler endured a rocky road leading up to its Euro/Aussie debut. At one point, plans were afoot to launch the PAL version in something known in the olden days as a "box." Fortunately, the outcry over that decision caused 2D Boy pair Ron and Kyle to opt for a WiiWare release, and we'll be reaping the benefits of that noble decision in just a few hours!

Does Japan have it yet? The whole world needs to be exposed to the wonderful World of Goo.

I got mine on October 24, thanks to the Homebrew Channel (AnyReigonChanger and Starfall, mind you).
Kyle was amazed that I got it, and even wondered how PAL gamers run their games in NTSC resolution.
One thing he couldn't explain was how the WiiWare version I got off the US shop channel, with no plans of a European WiiWare release at that time, displayed in PAL60.
I can't explain that either.
