Following the end of collaboration with Nortec. Didn't take too long.
Based on the Greek microsite note, CD Media will formally take the reins starting October 1st.
Some additional information from ninty.gr include:
CD Media previously handled (and still does) distribution of most major publishers' games, including Ubisoft, Take2, Capcom, Disney, Square Enix, Tecmo-Koei, Sony and Microsoft. Interestingly, I believe this will be the first time Nintendo games will be officially distributed in some Balkan countries. Nortec previously only distributed in Bulgaria, FYROM and Albania as far as I know, but now it seems that Romania, Croatia, Slovenia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Montenegro and Serbia will also be accommodated.
This is extremely good news. Last few months have been harsh for Nintendo in Greece, with only the most key titles arriving in retailers. Looking forward to see how this pans out.
PR from the official site.CD Media and Nintendo have signed an agreement to distribute future software titles and platforms
