Nintendo Wii U Will Be Disappointingly Region Locked

 

Nintendo has always maintained its region lock policy for most of its console, hence its no surprise that their new upcoming console – the Nintendo Wii U will be region locked as well.

Its always a disappointment when Nintendo choose to region lock their consoles, unlike Sony and Microsoft. My personal thought was that it would affect sales since its proves a hassle for gamers residing outside Japan but whom would like to play Japanese version of the game. 


And of course, there’s always the added shipping costs of purchasing Japanese game instead of just purchasing the ones that are available in your region.
