It’s been a long time coming, but Nintendo are finally selling replacement Wii U GamePads seperartly, in Japan at least.

First announced back all the way in 2012, Nintendo will sell you a replacement Wii U Gamepad for the low price of ¥13,284 in Japan or $155AUD – not bad really for a controller with a giant screen in it and all the tech inside.

You can of course pick between white or black but be warned the GamePads are region locked. A Japanese GamePad will only speak to a Japanese console, so no importing this one.

We may never get any games that use a two game GamePads, but at least you can buy a new one if the need be.
