Zack and Wiki delayed in Australia till 2008

Nintendo has today sent word to retailers that Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros’ Treasure has been delayed in Australia until 2008. The reason was given for the delay was due to unforeseen circumstances. This now makes Zack and Wiki the 5th 2007 Wii game that Australian Wii owners will miss out on this year; the others being Endless Ocean, Battalion Wars II, Donkey Kong Barrel Blast and the new Fire Emblem game. Perhaps one of those games may be rushed into service to fill the gap but we doubt it. Rumours of the games delay in Europe have also appeared.
