Topic: Black Wii Wheel... Sold Separately?

[UncleBob]

I've been unable to find anything on any of the other major retail sites with this - the new Black Mario Kart Wii/Wii Bundles come with a black Wii Wheel included.

I've been wondering if they'll be sold separately...  Found this...

Unfortunately, it won't let me check out - gives me an error when I try to add it to my cart.  Going to call tomorrow and see if I can order one over the phone.

The press release stated all the way on the bottom that the black Wii Wheel will be sold separately:

The new black Wii Wheel will also be available separately at a suggested retail price of $9.99.

I'm considering getting one to match my black Wiimotes, even though I have no need for it since I have two (second from ExciteBots).

Hmm... I might wait to find them in stores then, as they're listed at $15 (+shipping) on Nintendo's site.

I did call today and the guy I spoke with was unable to find them in their inventory, but did see where they were on the Webstore - he also got the error when trying to add them to his cart...

Their entire web store is broken and has been for a while.

Really?  I ordered some stuff from it just the other day and had no problems...?

Well, obviously the whole thing isn't broken, but there's all sort of things that don't work or redirect to the wrong place since it's based on an older revision of their site.
