Doraemon Land regions

The Doraemon Land game show has been split up into several regional versions with local contestants over its history.

First season
The first season of Doraemon Land was initially only shown and produced in Spain, with no international variations.

Kabushiki Gaisha ABS initially set up 5 versions of the show, produced by separate entities and broadcast on a number of terrestrial channels in Europe and Japan, whilst keeping the same common format. Another two were confirmed later in its broadcasting period.

Grand finale
ABS was considering the feasibility of a much larger final episode than that of the original Spanish version. After regular "Grand Finals", ABS would provide each national version's winning 3-person teams with plane tickets to Tokyo, where they will participate in an "International Final". This did not happen.

Premiere dates
Premiere dates for the new show were staggered by broadcasters and production companies:

Spain
LUK Internacional demanded that the show keep its Friday (9pm CET) timeslot on Boing in Spain. Advertisements on Boing.es pointed towards a premiere day of Friday, the 29th of April.

Italy
ABS Televisione Giappone set their 1st regional episode's premiere date as the 1st of May 2016, hoping to air an episode every Sunday at 6pm CET.

United Kingdom
Kabushiki Gaisha ABS' Edinburgh Annexe is responsible for advertising campaigns in the UK and Republic of Ireland. ABS' UK website, and posters and banners given away by the annexe, claimed that the show would begin at 5pm BST (adjusted for daylight savings) on the 3rd of May 2016, airing every Tuesday thereafter.

They later expressed their desires to air the show within the hours of Doraemon: A Visit To The 22nd Century, which starts in the UK on a JST-BST timeshift at 4pm.

France
LUK Internacional, in an attempt to keep consistency with its French effort, would air this local version at the same time as in France: 9pm every Friday, starting from the 29th of April.

Japan
Kabushiki Gaisha ABS confirmed that the show would air as a segment of A Visit To The 22nd Century as of the 4th of May.

Philippines
Staff heading the launch of the Luzviminda Broadcasting System have announced that they would produce a local version of the show for broadcast on weekends at 5:30pm (PST). The show was scheduled to have its first run on Sunday 8th May, but its premiere was moved to the simultaneous European/Japanese premiere date of Wednesday May the 11th, 2016.

Taiwan
Some staff members from Taiwan United Television have announced that they would produce a local version of the show for broadcast on weekends at 5:30pm (NST). The show was scheduled to have its first run on Monday 9th May, but its premiere was once again moved to the simultaneous European/Japanese premiere date of Wednesday May the 11th, 2016.

Thailand
Staff heading the launch of the Prathesthiy Thorthasn Broadcasting Corporation have announced that they would produce a local version of the show for broadcast on weekends at 4:30pm (TST). The show was scheduled to have its first run on launch night (Friday 29th April), but its premiere was moved to the simultaneous European/Japanese premiere date of Wednesday May the 11th, 2016.

Peru and Fiji
Suggestions were made to have the show's second season extended into Peru and Fiji, but these proposals were terminated by ABS as they came too late into the show's seasonal runtime.

Resolve
A worldwide settlement was reached that would see the series make its simultaneous premiere on May 11, 2016. Broadcasters were given permission to timeshift their broadcasts into more desirable time slots - most scheduled the start of the show between the hours of 5-6:30pm.

Third season
After the initial scramble from interested fans and broadcasters who were turned away in the last-minute rush for representation in the worldwide effort, Kabushiki Gaisha ABS announced a third season of Doraemon Land well ahead of time in December 2016, with the series once again being set to start in May.

After talks over the course of the second season, the Filipino and Thai editions were merged into a single Southeast Asian edition, with another edition being made for East Malaysia and Indonesia. Rumors amongst Doraemon's North American fanbase have been confirmed with four regional series being made for the East/West US, Hawaii and Canada.
