GREAT GAME (REGION LOCK)

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2015

The game was absolutely amazing there were no problems I will like to inform everyone that to play this game and any other imported game that YOU MUST have the consule or hand held for that region this is called region lock I do not know why it was invented but it restricts you from playing games outside of your region this is also a thing for NNID please take it into consideration that you MUST have the console I cannot stress it enough luckily I only bought this game to play the Japanese splatfest as I already own a copy of Sploon <~~ weird ik ik so it does work with wifi and I currently own a Japanese import of a wiiu which both of them work perfectly fine the game and the console are amazing and I take pride in being a Nintendo fan thanks!

We had to return this immediately since this game was "country specific." It did not work on our US WII system.

On the other hand, the folks at Amazon (as usual) were awesome and made it easy for us to exchange this game for something else.

THIS particular listing is for the Japanese import, but many idiots mistakenly ordered it and rage rated the game 1 of 5 because they made a mistake. This Is for Japanese Wii U. Let me give an actual review.

The GAME is a great game, fun for all ages. You can play alone, online with friends, or online with others in the U.S., and Japan. Unlike most first person shooters, this is third person, not violent, and family friendly. It is addictive and hours of fun!
