Hardware Wii U Gamecube adapters sold out :(

[Sheldon392]

I've been looking everywhere to find one, online and in stores, and they are completely gone... Does anyone have info on if Nintendo is going to be making more or where you can still buy them for retail price?

 

[Soopy]

Really glad I preordered early now...I'm assuming they will be making more soon.

Damn, now in Europe too they've gone out of stock but some of the retailers haven't increased the price like Amazon did.

I guess this'll take a while until Nintendo makes enough for each region and so.. absurd prices are expected.

No sadly, at least not yet.

Really regretting that I didn't preorder... I've been waiting since the adapter was announced to play my gc games with nintendont.

Personally I preordered my copy at best buy (20% off all new games and accessories)

Some people I know preordered on amazon months ago, they didnt get theirs today, and amazon now says "12th dec".

I preordered from my local GAME 2 days ago and got one this morning

Its hit n miss

I managed to preorder one at a source that shall remain useless since Amazon UK well, yeah, anyways. Since the Wii U Pro Controller isn't region locked, this sucker shouldn't be either. I refuse to support those stingy bastards on eBay

And yes, Nintendo will obviously release more, but they don't say when.

I keep hearing Dec 5 from various local retailers. Let's hope it's true...

 

[air2004]

I have no interest in this , but damn , people on amazon want $120 for that thing ...that is insane.

Wonderful how a piece of plastic with little electronics inside makes people go crazy.

I freaking paid £40 for Smash Wii U + GameCube adapter yet those numbskulls are willing to pay that much just for the adapter itself.
