GP3 2000 not coming to US/Canada

from alphaf1 17th August 2001 It looks like the 16th August release date was only for Germany and the World Wide release date will be as late as 7th September... However it looks quite unlikely that it'll be shipped to US/Canada.

Hopefully a Canadian distributor will bring it in. That's what happened with my copy of TOCA. Then a few months later a "North American" version showed up in the stores in different packaging. Dale.

I can sort of understand TOCA not going to the USA or Canada, but GP3... would they really miss out on a market that big? GMF "Dale Green" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
