Japanese retailer Joshin also experiencing Wii U supply issues
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 84 Comments
Supply issues in Japan is something we initially heard about around a month ago. Interestingly, it seems to still be a problem of sorts.
Joshin, a big chain electronics store in Japan, recently posted a message about Wii U supply. It starts out by stating that the Premium Set is currently unavailable. Consumers are told that they need to understand the console is currently out of stock before placing an order, and Joshin has no confirmation as to when it will be available again.
Those who are really in need of a Wii U can only hope that the issue resolves soon. Joshin also won’t answer any emails about when the console will be back in stock. Units will be shipped as soon as possible, and due to an issue with resellers, only one console can be ordered at this time.
Wii U stock will be shipped as soon as possible. Consumers will be informed by email when orders are being sent out.
Thanks to Ben for sending this in.

Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure details – Mystery Adventure Mode, music
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
As mentioned a few days ago, this week’s issue of Famitsu revealed Taiko Drum Master: Dokodon! Mystery Adventure for 3DS.
One of the big hooks in this release is a RPG-esque mode called “Mystery Adventure Mode.” We now have more information about what to expect from this aspect of the game.
The story background/objective is to protect the world’s OOPArts. There are two main characters in Mystery Adventure Mode: Tia (the girl) and Popokaka (the monkey). Meanwhile, the antagonists are a mysterious group called Hexagria, who stole a Lion Fang Necklace OOPArt at the beginning of story.
