The first batch of Japanese Wii consoles arrived today and all re-confirmed preorders at the higher price will ship this afternoon. The packaging is the same size as the USA Wii and nearly as heavy. As NCS mentioned in our Monday update, there is no shortage of Wii consoles in Japan. Vendors are loaded with stock and supplies are -/-massive-/- but distributors have to get their gouge-on since it's a tradition and every console must endure the high-priced rite of passage. It just wouldn't be natural if the Wii escaped the gouging tactics....Please note that only four Japanese Wii games arrived with today's shipment but every other launch game will arrive on Monday morning. The following games are available to ship with Wii preorders today:
» Wii Sports «View back cover»
Play tennis, baseball, bowling, golf, and boxing with waving arm action
» Ennichi no Tatsujin «View back cover»
Mini-games galore including ring toss, fish catch, food prep, and more
» Odoru Made in Wario «View back cover»
200 fast-paced mini-games - wok food, drive, hula hoop, pump, etc
» Zelda no Densetu Twilight Princess «View back cover»
Link embarks on a new adventure in the world of Hyrule
If your Wii console preorder has at least one of the games listed above, your order will ship today and any remaining games will ship on Monday. If your order consists of only the Wii console and a component video cable, we will still ship the Wii console today and fill the order for the cable once supplies arrive in the next few days.
NCS only imported enough Wii consoles to fill confirmed preorders but we will update our website when Japanese Wii prices return to normal in the next 1-2 weeks.
