Accidental eBay Sell; Going with it
«

I wrote a submission for my camera on eBay but didn’t hit the final Submit button for a few weeks.
Then I forgot about it and noticed an eBay page session timed out so I innocently logged in and it submitted the item before I knew what happened.
Oh well. I’ll just go with it.
My Canon PowerShot G9 is in great condition:

And some of you may be interested in a Japanese Nintendo Wii console with 3 bundled games (none of which require Japanese language knowledge to play):

Not too sure about that... don't Japan have both standards depending on area?

I didn’t actually specify that, I used the code from here:
http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Wii-Black-color-Japan-Import/dp/B0046ECA0E
eBay used B0046ECA0E to fill in all that information.
Researching shows:
The box does not say if it is PAL or NTSC.
It basically shouldn’t matter. Apparently they can be switched to work either way, or you just need to change the brightness on your TV.
One source online mentioned that the games that are PAL will specifically say they are PAL and NTSC games will not mention anything.
Assuming that is true, mine is NTSC. I will update the eBay listing.
Thank you for mentioning it.

It's worth getting right just because the vast majority of Wii games (all of them?) are region locked. This can easily enough be bypassed by modding, but it's not safe to assume your buyer will understand or be comfortable with softmods.

99% sure it is NTSC after more checking.
Anyway its main selling point is supposed to be to play Japanese games, and any Japanese games you get for it will work on it.
If others do as well (American etc.) then that is extra.
