Thank the gaming gods for America
The next eight days in handheld games
According to most political commentators, Gordon Brown's recent meeting with George W Bush didn't exactly end with the two leaders having forged a warm, cosy relationship.
And while we suspect the topics of discussion didn't exactly focus on the dire state of handheld releases facing Europe over the next week, presumably the British PM must have at least returned to the UK comforted by the support the US is providing in this regard. After all, George's nation is putting some big-name titles on retail shelves this August.
Or, just maybe, Gordon had other things on his mind.
Regardless, the fact remains that if you were hoping for new software next week, you better get in touch with your favourite importer.
