Perhaps, Nintendo is saving them for a later date? In that case I wonder how much extra memory the South Korean Wii has and if the loss of these features will entice locals to purchase an imported Wii instead.
The weather channel and news channels that appeared in other regions for launch are not on the list. Their channel page only shows the Photo channel, Shopping channel and Mii channel. The other (possible?) bummer is the lack of channels. This is going to be an interesting hybrid to watch. However, the inclusion of Antarctic Adventure suggests South Korea is getting some Japanese games with a mix of English ROMs. There isn’t anything out of the ordinary. Here are the virtual console games officially announced for South Korea: Compare that to 500, 800, and 1,000 Wii Points respectively. Famicom/Nintendo titles cost 400 Wii Points ($4), Super Famicom/Super Nintendo games are only 600 ($6) and Nintendo 64 games cost 800 ($8).
PANGYA GOLF SHUT DOWN PLUS
On the plus side South Korea pays the cheapest prices for Virtual Console games to date. No Sega Genesis, Neo Geo or TurboGrafx-16 games at launch. Only three consoles are supported: Famicom, Super Famicom and Nintendo 64. Pangya is a 3D Golf-Themed MMO featuring arcade-style gameplay that allows you to compete against other players in online matches and. South Korea is getting a Virtual Console shop specifically for their region and compared to the rest of the world it is limited. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock arrives in May. I don’t think any other Capcom games have been formally localized into Korean this generation, so this may be a first as well as a fourth chance for the adventure game to find an audience. I’m pretty surprised to see Zack & Wiki on the list. It’s interesting to note that Pangya Golf 2nd Shot is the only natively developed Korean Wii game on the list. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure
And no, neither of us noticed that we could switch back to Playthrough 1 from the main menu. Off went the game and we didn’t come back to it for months. Here is a list of games Korea gets on April 26. Cue me and Law throwing pads down in anger and deciding that if Gearbox was trying to force us to play through the main game again just to level up higher, they could go jump. Nintendo could have launched the console with Super Mario Galaxy or Mario Kart Wii instead they are leaving it up to third parties to carry the launch. The South Korean version of the Wii costs 220,000 won ($224).
Nintendo is only bringing out two titles to start Wii Sports (sold separately) and Wii Play (still bundled with the remote) for 38,000 won ($39) a piece. Later this month South Korea gets officially introduced to Nintendo’s remote with a suite Wii games fully localized into Korean.
