August is holiday/vacation month, and pretty much commercial suicide to release a game at this period (or at least a big AAA game), so Other M is actually quite a surprise to see! (Gawd I hope I haven't jinxed it and they delay lol...) Then again, Metroid is more aimed at the hardcore end of the market, so Nin probably aren't expecting 10million copies to fly off the shelves on day one.....
I'm actually glad for the break! Got an ever growing list of games to go through, and not enough time to do them in! Plus like has been said October is looking massive for both my Wii and 360, and there's still a possibility of 3DS before Chrimbo?! Gawd, not only is that list of games gonna grow, my bank balance is gonna take one hell of a hammering....:S
