Nintendo have launched an official online store in the UK, in a bid to maximise opportunities to sell their consoles and games to consumers.

Recently Nintendo have formed partnerships with GAME and Tesco, using their online services to push products out to the public. While the 3DS seems to be benefiting from this push, the Wii U has struggled with sales since launch, so having another outlet from which to purchase it can only be a good thing.

Most games seem priced at the maximum RRP, for example Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate edition on Wii U will set you back £49.99, despite being released 7 months ago. However the Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker Limited Edition bundle with Ganondorf figurine is available for £59.99, having previously been a GAME exclusive.
