Lyris Exclusive : NTSC-UK Update for My Peeps! Inbox
Hey David (Lyris)
I have been checking the post you set up regarding the Wii launch preorders and I thought I'd give you a little more heads up into the situation and answer some common (if not the millionth question) that i have been asked.
* First regarding preorders being up some games were turned on accidentally as we have been preparing the section so once we open it we can just flip everything on for the Wii-volution!
* No idea on what shipping costs will be as don't know how much it weighs, box size etc. (No idea on shipping yet but not as much as xb360 as the system looks to be a lot lighter.)
* Still figuring out how preorders will work and if there will be bundles or not.
* Preorders will not be up until sometime next week and we will probably give notice before so everyone can get ready, like a countdown or exact time.
* We will also be emailing a newsletter out and updating the blog with news so check the blog!

"Please wait for updates on preorders. USA and Japanese distributors have not started them yet but news should be forthcoming in the next few days. Despite the 4 million unit target, strange things can happen between official announcements and actual shipments... "
"Hi Dave, unfortunately none of the distributors in the USA have begun accepting preorders for the Wii console or software yet but we will keep our customers posted once we have news. We have begun to receive preorders for Wii accessories from third party manufacturers but nothing from Nintendo has been announced or confirmed yet. Thanks for checking with us.
