Well, I imagine that shipping is a total ass-hole so they have to pay a lot to ship the consoles out. Since this is what it is, they need to get enough money off of the release in whatever country it may be released in first (Japan) to ship it somewhere else. When they ship it to another place, they need to gain the profit to ship it to somewhere else.
Since America probably has the largest amount of gamers, they send the game to the U.S.A. first and then ship it to Europe since they are also heavily populated. Austrailia gets it last due to the fact that there aren't too many avid gamers down there compared to the rest of the world.
