The Chinese market has always been interesting for gaming companies, but getting consoles and games approved remains an arduous pursuit to this day. Nintendo launched the iQue brand as their attempt to make it into the region, manufacturing special versions of its consoles to meet Chinese guidelines, ranging from an all-new Nintendo 64 model to the completely lost iQue Wii, which is still being researched by preservationists to this day.

This is the glorious release history of iQue, Nintendo's Chinese presence, and the efforts to unearth as much as possible of what wasn't seen.
