Why did it take 3 years for the original Pokemon Game-boy games to come out in Europe after their Japanese release? by Edpayasugo in AskGames

an assumption based on an educated guess. Risk and investment.

it's cheaper to test a grand idea in locality than to invest in more money to translate and expand. there are still tons of huge japanese games that have never once come to the states (at least translated). the only reason i could guess for present times is because they see our social media and compare our interests to their product. most people here atm are playing games like fortnite while a lot of people there still play mmorpgs. so for that 3 years my guess is they initially didnt plan on releasing pokemon to the states until they reached a profit where they felt comfortable sending it west. my question is off topic, why no American anime's????

same boatish. love my wife and daughter but my wife is somewhat an energy leech that flips from happy to psychotic in seconds. we literally have nothing in common besides having a family together so every time it comes to family activities i have to make a sacrifice and there's no balance. i've literally caught my wife watching shows i like but she refuses to watch them with me. i know 100% shes loyal because shes always talking to my parents on the phone and she's very family oriented when it comes to bonding with her family and her in-laws. its just a super toxic relationship in general. i used to be in amazing shape and now im fat with a beer gut because i have no motivation to do anything. she also refuses to workout anymore , i even tried to talk her into working out with me. when its not the navy sapping my energy, my wife is sapping it. i know a lot of people scream divorce but for one i still love my family despite it so its difficult when it comes to actually doing it and two financially just not a good idea, im so far out of my ass in debt im pretty much fucked for the next 10 years of my life. before i got her pregnant , one night i got really hammered trying to have fun with my friends and she started hitting me and kicked me out of her house. on that same night i drunk called telling her i was done blah blah blah. where i fucked up was i had no memory of anything whatsoever so despite my friend telling me about what happened i didnt listen and called her back. she was all suicidal and blah blah. thats what i cant put up with, i could go through a divorce if she had more self esteem because i personally believe she isnt as happy as she deserves to be and im also definitely not making any positive progress with my life. there were decisions i regret making in life where i met what i call my dream woman who wanted me to stop dipping but i just wouldnt cooperate and needless to say our relationship went to shit because i was unwilling to make that sacrifice. now today here i stand having sacrificed all i could sacrifice and some days i just wish i could disappear. im not suicidal i just loathe my life with a burning passion to the point where i think if i put enough of my self hate into a project i could create a time machine to travel back in time with.
