Nintendo clears any concerns regarding a used Wii Speak purchase.
Lately there has been much controversy over Nintendo's alleged discrimination against the used games market with their latest peripheral, Wii Speak. However, contrary to initial reports, Nintendo is not barring people who have purchased a used Wii Speak from the ability to download the Wii Speak channel by restricting the availability of Wii Speak Channel download codes, which are included with purchases of the Wii Speak peripheral.
In a statement late last month, a Nintendo UK spokesperson told Eurogamer that any consumer who may have misplaced their number or who requires a new one due to a "Wii exchange" simply has to call their local Nintendo service department and a new download code will be issued.
