sorry but those sales are very good for Korea. There has been plenty of marketing here but it has almost already outsold PS3 already. Only very hardcore gamers that don't mind playing games in languages they most likely don't understand would be willing to get the japanese system. Pirating is really popular in korea, but most of the people pirating are getting korean games, much of the reason is because they want to play it in their language.
Nintendo might be sacrificing some software sales for hardware sales here, but they are taking a stand against piracy. Basically people want to illegally play games from Japan and America, very very few of those people actually plan on buying those games. If people are whining because they can't pirate, then don't expect Nintendo to do something about it.
Once the Koreans get off their ass and actually put up the money for their games companies will release most of the games in Korea. Until they do that I have no sympathy for all the pirates in Korea.
