    Wii Peripherials Crazy Expensive In Kuwait

    Virgin Megastore in Kuwait not only misspells its own name, but also sells Nintendo Wiis for 299KD (US $1,034), which is four time the American price. We've posted pricing differences aboard before, but just look at this insanity: Wii-motes and the nunchuks go for 45KD (US $155). Each! That means buying a Wii-mote and a nunchuk is pricier than buying a Wii in either the US or Japan. Blogs The Kuwaiti.com:

    The other stores in Kuwait charge less than half for those controllers (and those are also a rip off).

    For a store named "Virgin," it's sure good at fucking people over. Brian Ashcraft
