Nintendo FROWNS upon Pokemon Diamond/Pearl importers

Nintendo FROWNS. Now there's a statement.

With Nintendo of America bringing Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl to these shores in late April (as well as European shores via Ninty of Europe later on), and based on what they’ve told Kikizo, they will NOT be happy if they find Japanese versions of the game over at those mentioned shores. Begin quote, Robert Saunders of Nintendo of Europe, to Kikizo:

We in no way condone the importing of games into territories other than where they are supposed to be sold… As in the past, if deemed necessary we will issue cease and desist letters to retailers whom we know are selling imported games not intended for sale within the EEA. Nintendo rigorously protects its worldwide trademarks and in doing so ensures fair play in the market for all retailers.

End quote, enough said. Importers have had their warning.
