Despite denying that us filthygaijinswould ever get our mitts on theGold Nunchukavailable on the Japanese Club Nintendo, Nintendo has finally relented. It’s in limited supply, but now you too can own aGold Nunchukfor a scant 900 coins!
Wait, 900? But the Japanese one only costs 600, discounted to 400 if you had registeredSkyward Sword. Maybe the different regional values are equivalent, but I wouldn’t put it past Nintendo to squeeze a little more change out of our pockets. I’d probably be better off spray painting my white one gold. At least then I’d be able to cover up the cord that Nintendo insisted on leaving unpainted.
But I do love the disclaimer at the bottom of the item page: “The gold controller will simply be gold in color and will not contain any actual precious metals.” Oh gee, really?
