7000台WiiU就这样没了!
ABC News is reporting a huge loss for Nintendo today as Thieves shamelessly backed up two large diesel trucks into a Nintendo warehouse in SeaTac, Washington earlier today. Police say the criminals stole thousands of consoles by using forklifts to put all the Wii U goodies into two 53-foot semi-trucks.
根据ABC报道,任天堂位于SeaTac, Washington的仓库被一些”不要脸的“盗贼用叉车插走了大约两大卡车的WiiU主机。
One officer said,“I’ve been a cop for 28 years, and I’ve never seen anything like this…this has come straight out of the movies.”
引用一名警官的评论,”***了28年***,对此类盗窃案简直闻所未闻... 简直就是好莱坞大片呀!“
There is some saving grace for Nintendo, however: all Wii U consoles are traceable, meaning it’s just a matter of time before the criminals are caught selling them.
当然吗,事情有坏的一面就有好的一面: 所有的WiiU主机都是可定位的,意思就是说,在盗贼销赃之前将其逮捕只是时间问题
That being said, in a holiday season where Nintendo needs all the momentum they can get, the absence of those 7,000 consoles could be equally damaging. That’s not only 7,000 less people paying $300 a pop ($2.1 million total), but also 7,000 less people supporting the console, buying games, playing online games, buying online content, and moving the console forward.
当然,就算主机可以找回,但是失去的时间可就找不回了。节日期间正式销售的旺季,因为这7000台主机的缺口,任天堂可能无法满足市场的需求,从而造成损失。而且,最严重的问题还不是将会有7000人无法玩到价值300刀的游戏主机,而是由于这7000台主机的缺口,造成这7000人无法继购买游戏,无法与WiiU的网络互动,无法再WiiU的网路商店购买商品,一语概之,就是无法推动WiiU的进一步发展。
Whether or not Nintendo has any extra measures in place to prevent stolen units from being used is unknown and unlikely, but buyers should beware if they’re not purchasing from a big box store or reputable online retailer. For example: say you purchase the Wii U on EBay, it’s one of the stolen units, Nintendo is able to track it, and they come knocking at your door.
虽然我们无法得知任天堂到底有没有办法来组织失窃的主机在市场上流通,但是作为一名消费者,理应提高警惕;特别是如果玩家不打算在大型超市购买或者在授权的网络商城购买。比如说,你要是在Ebey上购买了失窃的WiiU而被任天堂追踪到,到时候任天堂敲你们门可就不好了。
