Please bring it officially to Australia!

They’ve delayed it so long if they ever do release it on our shores the hardware won’t be justifiable as a purchase.

Wait what? It was never released in Oz? That seems like a strangely large and relevant market to have skipped.

Yeah it’s pretty odd.

Pretty sure Lord GabeN still holds a grudge against us from that time the ACCC sued Steam over local pricing and consumer protection laws; so we’re very unlikely to ever see local hardware releases.

I ended up getting mine through an eBay seller a year ago - no regrets so far.
