After years of publisher (books, folks, books) Daewon butchering Nintendo's system (with non-existant after service) and software (with shoddy localizations), Nintendo has finally come to its senses and created a Korean branch. Until now, Ninty produts have been licensed out to Daewon, who has then turned around an sold the goods to varying degrees of success. The company has even released a handful of titles. But Daewon is not Nintendo.

Over at Korean game portal Ruliweb, the boards are buzzing with excitement—even if there are rumors circulating that Nintendo of Korea is still working with Daewon. Speculation that is furthered by the images of the DS and the GameCube on the Daewon site, which are no doubt hold-overs from previous launches. Brian Ashcraft
