Its kinda like a question. Since there are already Hi-qual screenshots from the 2nd trailer (primitively shown at the Square Enix Party 2007) running about the place, I wondered, if the trailer was out? yet? =D
The one shown at the Square-Enix Party was actually the third Versus trailer . The seconds one was shown at Jump Festa. Unfortunately neither of these have been released to the public and they were only shown in the Closed Mega Theater at these events.

actually every new trailer is an extended version of the one before it so in reality there is only one trailer released for both games
Well Europe and NA are also quite large markets. Its quite silly if they continue on with this region splicing, it doesn't make sense in todays globalised world.
On a less coherent note, I WANT THE NEW TRAILER NOW.

how big the region is never matters, sales do and FF sells as much in Japan as both Europe and NA combined
Still though, they lose a lot of money if they neglect NA and Europe. FFXII sold 2.3 million in Japan and 1.3 million in the US. Japan sales are a lot higher but do they really want to write off the potential to sell much more to other markets?
and... America gets games like GTA first and Europe gets games like Pro Evolution Soccer first
since Asia is the biggest market for the series(actually it's Japan) of course they are going to get the game first
Actually the US has a bigger market for FF because the producers only releases the game in two languages: English and Japanese.
People from China and Taiwan can't understand Japanese-- and how can you play a FF without understanding what tasks you're given?-- So naturally, its popularity in Asia is limited.
As for the US, there's lots of people who dig FF! Okay, I'm done
delaying a game almost never decreases it's sales, and they are trying to expand their fanbase with games like FFXII and FF Versus
Not saying it will decrease thier sales. I'm just saying they should look after us more as its pure lazyness on thier part otherwise. I mean Konami don't seem to have this problem with the marketing and release dates of MGS4 and I really respect them for that. Think of those long reels of codec conversation and all those cut scenes they need to translate. Now why can't Square-Enix do the same? They have enough money, they aern't a small company

Huh what do you mean? If you mean that they should obviouslty care more about the Japan market I was just saying that Konami are catering to the world, theres the difference.
