      there used to be a specific eshop for people in the caribbean and some south american countries. unlike the EU and Japan eshops, you could just access it on a north american wii u by setting your country to one of those countries. from what i've heard, all you could do was enter download codes you got from stores. unfortunately, it shut down on July 31, 2020.
      Edit: I just remembered this, but there may be an exclusive AUS/NZ eShop. I was looking up stuff about region changing and some guy on a forum from australia said he changed his region from aus to uk often so he could access the european eshop. this probably means there was an exclusive wii u eshop for australia, and i assume it was just a lesser version of the european eshop. scott could access it easily by making another account on his pal wii u and setting australia as the region.

    New Super Mario Bros Wii isn’t on the North American Eshop which I always found really odd especially because it was one of the best selling Wii games of all time, so it just made sense but they didn’t. Classic Nintendo move right there.

    That's not Power Rangers.That's Kamen Rider. It came out before Power Rangers, and it's still going to this day. Power Rangers was adapted from Super Sentai. Both Kamen Rider and Super Sentai were created by the same person.
    Also, BOTW is an RPG, just face it.

    Warriors Orochi 3 is 2 in Japan because we had 1 and 2 in the PS2, but Japan had 1 and later on Z, which had 1 and 2 combined. So we are one number ahead.

    Anyone know why the Japanese Wii U eshop is primarily in Japanese but also has the occasional English word for certain things?

    • @Zorgot.
      @Zorgot. Před 3 lety +17

      That’s just how Japan is kinda, they incorporate a tiny bit of English text all over even though it’s mainly just Japanese. I don’t exactly know why I guess, but it’s not exclusive to the Wii U eshop I guess, like you’ll see that walking through the cities of Japan pretty much. But some games in the Eshop are also just games that are from overseas and have been localized for Japanese but use the same English title. People over there in Japan can usually read the simple English words anyways so it works out like in titles and stuff

    Honestly, I expected the Wii U eShop to be more abandoned (especially in Japan since the vast majority have already migrated to Switch there), it is MUCH better than the state you find in other stores like the PS3 for example.

    Oh, family party 30 great games was part of the simple2000 series. Volume 1 on Wii U. Im guessing the only one for Wii U. That was a very big line in Japan for budget games, there was a lot on PS2. It's kinda neat, there's some good things under the label, but also a lot of mediocre/bad stuff.

    Dude... I dig it. This Japanese Wii U content is oddly entertaining. I agree about the white handheld part. The black shows everything.
    I have had my Wii U for less than a year and it has become my family's most used console... granted I did jail break it so I could play all of our GameCube games on it as well. Now we have 3 generations of our most family playable games in the living room. Of course it means the "normal" people in my family come down to my awesome retro game room much less. They do play more games now though so we will call it a win.

    That one game you said looks like Power Rangers is actually very close; it's a Kamen Rider game, a Japanese tokusatsu series that is a sibling series to fellow tokusatsu series, Super Sentai, which is the series that gets adapted into Power Rangers. There are actually a few modern games that have full English localization for SEA territories, which is kind of neat, since they've only started bringing Kamen Rider to the west in a major way in the past two or three years. Maybe if you're ever come to a convention I attend, I'll give you a copy of one of those games.
