In a report recently published by The Korea Times, word hits that both Nintendo and Activision registered games with the Korean ratings board (their version of the ESRB). With the popular gift-giving holiday Children's Day coming May 5th, the consensus is that the system will launch then.
Regardless of when it's coming, the important thing is that it is arriving at all. We'll cross our fingers for you, fine Korean brothers and sisters, so that you may enjoy what has been the focus of our lives for quite some time.

Wow, I didn't know about this. They're Brawlless? Poor people. They should start picketing the Ninty branch with "We Want Wii!" signs until they get the system.
On the flip side, the fact that they get all the Starcraft 2 announcements kind of makes up for it, no?

How 'bout we settle the shortage in the U.S. and elsewhere before shipping precious Wiis to other places.

Aw, don't be so selfish. Just like touching, sharing is good. :P
