For those of you who ordered the Wii lan adapter, they seem to be shipping. Reader Ken sent in a pic of his, which arrived in the mail today.

Anyone else get theirs?

Link to store:
USA
Canada

Soon you might just be able to go to Nintendo of America (Redmond, WA) or Nintendo of Canada (Richmond, BC) to get it. I got my component cables at Nintendo of Canada a few weeks ago.

Wait.. You can walk into the Richmond Nintendo location and buy accessories?

Damn, I should've done that a long time ago and not waste all my time searching for Wiimotes and Nunchuck plus other Nintendo paraphernalia

Yep, my friend walked in and bought 3 WiiMotes, 3 Nunchuks, and 2 component cables (1 for me). No need to pay the $7 shipping and you get instant results =P

Gotta find out when the NWS will get 'em.

Finally!

Will you be able to buy these in stores or just online?

Vague answer: Probably only online.
Straight answer: It's Nintendo.

Can you use this to use the LAN features in Mario Kart Double Dash?

Straight answer: It's Nintendo.

Hrm... I'd call the official repair place in the area if I could find the phone number again on the Nintendo site, but of course I can't find it now...

I'd be nice if I could just hop over there and grab one of these and a set of component cables...

Nintendo doesn't like to make money off accessories, so most likely they will make it hard to get (just online) :/

I doubt it. Color me impressed if otherwise.

Wait what games work with this?

Its a replacement for the Wifi

Pretty much any Wii Software, and the Wii itself. This is just for those who prefer using an ethernet cable to hook up their Wii to the net, rather than setting up a Wi-Fi Network or buying the USB Adaptor.

Saw a bunch of these in Osaka yesterday, for 2500 Yen. In retrospect I should have grabbed one.

way better than frying your brain with wi-fi waves and stabler too I think
