Nintendo has said that "retail pandemonium and mayhem is expected" at the Japanese launch.
In Australia, where the console goes on sale on December 7, there are no "official" launch events planned, a Nintendo spokesperson told IT Wire.
However, several retail chains, including EB and Toys R Us, are planning midnight openings to let gaming fans get their hands on the new console, which will retail for $399.95. Additional Wii controllers cost $69.95 each.
