[edit] Addition of Non-AFL cities

Remy, regarding my post that the addition of the Hobart, Canberra and Darwin teams in Aussie Rules Footy was because they were the only Australian capital cities not hosting at least one AFL club at the time of release: the information was provided on a newsletter that Nintendo mailed out every few months highlighting games about to be released (I very much doubt I still have a copy of the newsletter). The info may also appear in the instruction manual for the game, I will check this - I will also try emailing Beam Software / Melbourne House to see if they can verify this.

I consider this information fairly relevant - people may be confused and want to know why these non-AFL cities were represented in the game. I would think the information on why these cities were included is as important as knowing that AFL teams would later on actually play in certain cities, especially in the case of Launceston which isn't even a city in the game.

If I can find in writing that this the reason these teams were included I will pass it on, however I hope you will re-consider posting this info on the page. --Brebster 04:15, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
