Nintendo opens UK store offering exclusives, extended warranty Nintendo has launched its own online store in the United Kingdom, shipping out orders from its own stock rather than re-directing to third parties.
In the United States, Nintendo's online store lists its products but redirects users to third party retailers to make a purchase. In the newly launched UK store, Nintendo takes and processes orders from its own stock, provides free shipping with orders over £200 qualifying for next day delivery.

In addition to selling its home and handheld consoles; the Wii, Wii U, 3DS and DS, Nintendo will also sell exclusive bundles through its own UK store, and offer extended warranty.

There is no indication that Nintendo plans to bring similar in-house online stores to any other region at this time.
