While most readers of Wii Fanboy don’t have to face that kind of problem, there are many nations all through the world that force gamers to resort to the gray market to pick up their system of choice. Take India, for example, the moment most populated country in the world.

Sony and Microsoft have distributors in the country, but the Wii doesn’t. However, that may change soon suitable, after Milestone Interactive tests out the market for Wii software. We’re not entirely confident in Milestone’s approach, though. For one, it hardly seems smart to base results on game sales when the console itself hasn’t even officially released yet. On the other hand, since that’s just how things are in India (and they’re not likely to change anytime soon), we can understand Milestone’s rush to get the ball rolling.

Here comes the other, less excusable problem: the

game Milestone chose to distribute is Alone in the Dark Wii. Not even critics are playing the Wii version of Alone in the Dark, so is it fair to assess the Wii’s chances based on Atari’s survival horror title? plus, considering Indian gamers import their Wiis, we wonder whether the region of the disc will have any effect on sales.

At least that is a step in the right direction, but now that supply for the Wii is starting to meet demand globally, we hope Nintendo branches out into some of the areas it currently neglects.
