I’ve received a number of emails from people asking about the Wii preorders that we offer through Liksang. Below are the most frequently asked Wii preorder questions. Are the Wii’s from Liksang region 1 (NTSC)?
- Are the Wii’s from Liksang region 1 (NTSC)?
LikSang is located in Japan, however they distribute to all major countries. Meaning if you live in the US and preorder through Liksang, then your Wii will be region 1 and available on Nov 19th, the US launch date.
- How much does it cost to preorder from Liksang?
It costs you nothing to preorder! As soon as the Wii is available in your region Liksang will contact you via email and request payment then. Once you have completed payment your Wii order will ship.
- Will a preordered Wii from Liksang play American Games?
YES! Please refer to the first FAQ question.
- Is Buy-Wii.net planning on becoming a direct distributor of Wii’s and Wii games?
We are currently negotiating with local companies to become a distributor of the gaming system. In addition we are planning to offer system bundles at prices that cannot be beat anywhere on the net.
- Do you have proof that my Wii preorder will be meant for my region?
Yes, Buy-Wii has been in direct contact with the sales manager at Liksang.
- Do I have to preorder a Wii?
You do not HAVE to, but its strongly recommended. Think back to other popular console launches, specifically the Xbox 360. In many areas of the country if you were not one who preordered it was up to 4 months after launch before you could get your hands on one.
Those are all the FAQ’s I can think of for now, if anyone has another question please feel free to comment here. I’ll do my best to answer the questions and communicate with my contact at Liksang if need be.
Is there any way for us to know if we got in soon enough for the first shipment?
Also, is the shipping cost and time going to be high?
There is no way to know if it’s soon enough for the first shipment. However, chances are favorable that all orders will be filled at launch. I’m basing this on what Nintendo has told us directly with launch figures.
Shipping will not be high, hell..they ship games for free!
This is information found on The Wiire.
the us release date is the 19th would we recieve the wii about that time or will it probably start shipping then ?
@aaron, this would imply that it would ship then, since that’s when Lik-Sang would have it available.
I just preordered through the link you provided. Is the price guaranteed to be $249.99 plus shipping?
Thanks
Check liksang’s website now… they are OUT OF BUSINESS.
THEY ARE DEFINITELY OUT OF BUSINESS!!!
I preordered the Wii so I could stay out of all the mess, but liksang is out of business. Please let me know if you can help out with still getting a wii.
Not sure what else I can do christine. I’m offering an Amazon store for now, but they have not received their stock as of yet, at least to completely fill their preorders.
You gotta be quick!
