well you still can import PAL region game from play-asia. as for eshop I think you need to have aussie/nz c.c. then.

in the meantime you can always try vpn.

I heard citibank credit card got sime special feature. Try to check their website. Called shoppingglobe or globe shopping. They will give us postalcode sumething and u can use ur cc anytime anywhere. So might probably u can get auzy code as well.

Haha yes im really screwed!
US is too far for our family to go to.. yeah i have checked out the PAL games in play-asia, ebay & amazon and the price is like stringfellow said, cutthroat..
How i wish i could sell this PAL Wii U and buy the NTSC version instead..

Er... sorry ah bro.. I meant about Wii U eShop purchases?

Can use local maybank credit card with hopshop go address to purchase
games digitally?

No. What i meant was hopshopgo is for you to order things and get the physical product.

nomuken, I've changed the country of residence to Canada (option D), but the country for the user account cannot be changed. My previous country of residence is US btw. Do you need to setup a new account profile and still using the same NNID? The reason I didn't delete my current user profile with the same NNID until now because I'm afraid the NNID that I'm currently using cannot be used anymore since it's already tied to country of residence (US) @ Nintendo server.

Yeap. Logically u need to make a new account/profile. I heard many from singaporeans forums, they initially try the brazil trick (like 3ds),then they just make a new profile register US or Canada. For canada, they chose alberta cuz less tax incured.

No, you cannot. A Nintendo Network Account can only be used on the console where it was created.

Yangkuo is right. Basically need to make a new account on your US Wii U.

I planing to buy a wii u set from Japan. So is the voltage at Japan same as Malaysia?
So do I need to add a adapter if I bring it over to Malaysia? Since most of the game console here came from US.

Get a stepdown transformer.

Or you can buy local adaptor (WiiU/Gamepad) at lelong or Impulse Megastore
