well turns out its not even out here yet. Nintendo ALWAYS makes us wait ages to get a copy of their games.

also i found out just how well wii is doing here. and its actually quite surprising but its so unpopular some gaming shops have stoped ordering them!

nintendo provides us with such crap service and products that its not a surprise i don’t know anyone with their products. nintendo isnt even fucked to provide a help line for us! while sony and microsoft both do specifically for gaming only

Well its out in Australia, so I’m sure you can order one online.

But yea Nintendo doesn’t reach out to NZ well. Never have and probably never will. But luckily Australia is close to ya.

Well Nintendo usually brings its biggest titles to Japan or the US first mainly because they are bigger markets, I mean Metroid Prime 3 was developed here so it is a full blown US game, sold well here and it has only been out in Europe for a few weeks. Not even out in Japan yet and it has been released here since August.

I’m sure after Wii and DS success though, and Nintendo’s heightened market value, they’ll be able to open more Nintend of *insert county*. So NZ might get one allowing you to get shipments and software quicker.

Its harder for Nintendo to open in there over Sony and MS mainly becuase MS and Sony were already over there due to their other products, while Nintendo can’t just put places up in every country. Only the major ones. So that’s probably why its taken them longer. To answer that question.

But just in case anyone is wondering here are the locations of NIntendo distrubtion divisions:

Nintendo of America
Nintendo of Canada
Nintendo Mexico

Nintendo Australia Pty. Ltd

Amo Oy — Finland Disribution
Bergsala AB — Iceland, Norway, Sweden Distribution
Bergsala AS — Denmark Distribution
Nintendo Benelux — Belgium, Netherlands Distribution
Nintendo España
Nintendo of Europe (NOE)
Nintendo France
Nintendo Germany
Nintendo Italy
Nintendo Russia
Nintendo UK and Ireland

Nintendo Company Limited — Nintendo Headquarters, Japan Distribution
Nintendo Hong Kong
Nintendo of Korea (NOK)
Nintendo Phuten Company — Taiwan Distribution


Nintendo of Korea and Nintendo Russia have just opened. Shows how they really even haven’t gotten into a lot of those markets as well especially the European countries like that. Need to expand out further into Easter Europe. I know people have looked at VGCharts and noticed that Wii is not selling well in Other Europe and Other regions. It’s mainly cause they haven’t released the console in most of those regions. China, India, South Korea, and other smaller countries in Asia and Easter Europe have yet to see the console. Nintendo needs to get on the ball there.

Because South Korea is better.

Nintendo needs to expand a bit, it seems.

I mean, just now getting into Korea (likely South)? Seoul is the freakin' tech capital of the world.
