Will you also bring Wii and DS first-party titles to India and what will be the price range for Wii and DS games?
Yes, we will bring first-party as well as licensee software to India and prices will depend on the individual titles.
Will the Wii in India be PAL or NTSC-U/C?
The Wii will be NTSC.
Besides Nintendo, which publishers' games will you distribute?
We have already tied up with a few publishers and negotiations with others are underway.*
The NTSC-U/C Wii is available for Rs 16,000 in the grey market. What is the advantage of buying a genuine Wii supplied by your company?
The Wii available in the grey market is without bill and warranty and comes with a duplicate 220 Volts adapter. The Wii brought in from America has a 110 Volts adapter, which is replaced with China-made 220 Volts adapter and passed as original. Entry to the Fun Club and Loyalty programme will also be restricted to buyers with bill.
* There is an indication that Samurai would distribute EA games in India for Nintendo platforms, although we have no official confirmation of this.
