Ni No Kuni SA stock shortage explained

Reports are coming in that PS3 game Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch is pretty hard to find at retail in SA.

Megarom, distributor of Namco Bandai products, has told MyGaming that there is no need to panic and more copies will be available as soon as possible.

The shortage, in fact, bodes well for the title, a Megarom spokesperson explained: “Ni No Kuni has been incredibly well received and we’re currently out of stock in our warehouses. The game has surpassed expectations and demand has been higher than expected worldwide. Megarom is receiving additional stock and will be shipped to retailers within the next few weeks.”

“Consumers should check with retailers such as, BT Games, Takealot, Kalahari and AWX for any additional stock,” Megarom said.

Quinton has just wrapped up his review of the game, saying:

It’s a level of depth that’s a welcome surprise underneath the bright colours and feel-good atmosphere which makes Ni No Kuni a magnificently packaged journey into a truly magical world (yes, I said magical).

JRPG fans will love Ni No Kuni, though it will undoubtedly lack appeal to more traditional western gamers. Perhaps if you’re tired of murder, explosions and guns and want something a little lighter and brighter, then this comes highly recommended.
