Some burning question here.

1. Can they receive pre-orders for future games. Like......FF3 ?
2. How much it's gonna cost for GBA back-orders?
3. Which version/region games they're selling?
4. Do the counter provide NWFC compatable Wi-Fi access point? (pwning customers in MPH isn't good for their business tongue.gif )

Since DS games are much more expensive there, maybe I'll buy GBA games (a lot of them biggrin.gif ) from official Ninty shop, and Djinn will handle my DS games needs.

I'm sorely dissapointed at your company's by not providing a local
distributor for the country of Malaysia.

Although piracy was rampant here, but many people here are willing to spend
money for original products. There're even active community for
Nintendo here.

For example:
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showforum=110

It's a Nintendo community I participate in. We even held monthly meetups  to play various Nintendo DS games.

I hope your company will respond soon with ACTIONS so we dont have to
import and paying exorbitant prices with little or no warranty protection.

Evo : I really don't thnk we can get consoles/games on launch date here. Heck. they don't even have Mario vs DK2 yet!

So I went to the stall, and yes.. they still had Warioware Twisted there so I picked up a copy. had a little chat with the sales girl.

Told her a few things such as
- Price is more expensive
- The NDS CAN do more than just play games, just need the right stuff like a Play Yan, or a Browser.

And most importantly...

If they didn't have a one on one replacement policy for dead pixels on the NDSL, or allow prospective buyers to chekc the screens for dead pixels before purchase then they're gonna get a lot less business since people dont want to end up with a more expensive NDSL which they couldn't check for dead pixels. tongue.gif

Hope this takes off... I'm actually dead keen on finding work with Nintendo... hopefully Nintendo Europe... but have 0 idea of how to go about finding work with them... Maybe now that they've official dealership presence here, a marketing office might not be long in coming?.. (fingers crossed but the reality of the situation is that the piracy situation makes it highly unlikely)
