NubyTech | LOS ANGELES, Calif., March 1st 2005. -NubytechTM announced today the expanded distribution of the already world-famous Resident Evil 4 Chainsaw Controller to the global market. With the game coming out in Europe on March 18th, this will be a double pleasure for European fans and Game Cube owners. The buzz on this one-of-a-kind chainsaw controller has been spreading rapidly on various fan sites and in media channels around the globe; naturally the next step was to make sure it would be available at the retail level.

Wild Things Ltd. (www.wild-things.co.uk), who also offers a wide variety of NubyTech products, has just been brought on to cover the UK and South Africa. Spain and Portugal will be represented by Virgin Play (www.Virginplay.es) as the exclusive distributor of all NubyTech products in that territory.
"NubyTech is excited to offer exclusive partnerships to these distributors. We know they will continue to support our products and help us reach the next level" stated Paul Chen, president and chief operating officer, NubyTech. "We have no plans of stopping here - the demand for our products is continuously increasing, and we are in the process of expanding our global market opportunities"
Next up on NubyTech's release schedule are the Street Fighter controllers for XBOX - with a different controller for three of the main characters: Akuma, Guile and Bison.
