Just in case there was still a hope fleeting through that last ounce of grey matter that Nintendo UK's David Yarnton was drunkenly ranting over a pint about the Wii not being region-free, you can officially dash it.
According to Nintendo of America — the same guys who told Wired last week that region-free Wii was a certainty — comes an official correction.
"Wii will be region encoded by territory."
Which I'm sure is excellent news for all the people who pre-ordered an Asiatic Wii via Lik Sang seconds after Perrin Kaplan randomly blurted out a complete lie.
