Nintendo of Japan’s online store is now selling Wii U Gamepads

Posted on November 24, 2015 by (@OnePunchMaz) in News, Wii U

Nintendo originally announced near the system’s launch that you would eventually be able to buy the Wii U Gamepad separately and use two of them with the system. Well, support for more than one Gamepad at the time still hasn’t happened and probably will never happen, but you can in fact now buy a new Gamepad directly from Nintendo of Japan’s online store.

The standalone Gamepad costs 13,824 yen. If your old Gamepad broke and your warranty expired and you don’t want to pay for repairs, buying a new one is now an option. Note, however, that the Gamepad itself is region-locked, so it won’t work with your PAL or NTSC Wii U.
