“For US and Canada only”?! Well, what about me? I’ve a Wii, don’t I get a jacket? Just because I’m not from North America doesn’t mean I don’t flail my arms around as much. So my TV’s in constant mortal danger, as well as any hapless bystander who happens to be passing by while I’m swinging away at Wii boxing. I hope the wii-mote strap holds.

Nintendo, I’m really disappointed. You’re from Japan for crying out loud. How could you forget Asia?
