I fully agree with this standpoint.

I really hate the fact that American and Japanese companies always tread the 
rest of the world as something that they will serve later. We always must 
wait at least half a year or sometimes even a year before something is 
released outside the US or JP. If it is released at all outside those regions.

It is exactly the same with movies in cinemas and even worse: with DVD. 
There, the film industry has even made a f*cking region code to divide the 
world and protect their ridiculous, monopolistic, distribution policies.

Kind regards,
