Well, we thought we'd squeezed the last squidge of meconium-like Wii launch announcements out of the Internet's communal bowel, but it seems that's not the case.
Kiwis! Put down that amorous sheep. The Wii is coming to you on December 7th. It will come with Wii Sports. It will cost $499 of your New Zealand dollars. That is all.
Actually, wait, that's not all. NZ $499? That's 261 euros or 330 American Cowboyos. You guys are even paying more for it than Australia. How many sheep do you have to herd for that kind of change? A million?
You guys sure are getting boned. I'm not sure if Nintendo's being all that smart here: if there's anything that Once Were Warriors taught me, it's that you don't fuck with the M ?ori.
