It's only going to be available at one retailer. I guess Australia's Wii owners aren't ponying up much. |
We aren't even given a chance. The number of games that don't even get here is disappointing, RPG's in particular. It was for this reason that had intended to purchase an American Wii but unfortunately due it constantly selling out, i grew impatient and caved.

Its clever bcoz it doesn't really say who's to blame, whether its retailers for not being interested or Nintendo Australia for not bothering to try and sell it.

From the Kanga avatar guessing your an aus?
if so i only caved coz of the 388 wii, wii fit, and extra game deal (wii is 399 in AUD$) everything is expensive over here, the ps3 is $688, yet always seems to come with a game (infamous atm)

Fair enough, but you're missing out on a unique and pretty fun racer.
| RolStoppable said: It's awful, especially because this is the very first generation in which it happened that we didn't get a game that was released in America. Did you even think for a second before typing your post? |
What was that Rol? I couldn't hear you over the sound of this Super Sandwhich I just made. Oh! Pie Face coming up! Oh, you're still here? How's replaying Fire Emblem yet again working out for you?

Sorry to hear that dude. Plus, y'all seem to be charged about double to boot.
Not surprising in the least unfortunately.
Sad to hear, it is a solid game. Worth checking out for anybody into Excite Truck, if only for the online.

You are totally wrong.
Driving with strange robots <<<< Driving away from Tsunamis and Volcanos
At least in my oppinion Disaster is the better game. (It is still my favorite game this gen.)
It doesn't really matter since no one would have bought it anyway.
Besides for it being the best game to come out for the Wii this year, there's really no reason to own it.
