Does anyone know how I can buy some ADR shares in Nintendo?

So far I have tried JP Morgan and Bank of New York and they are both
about as helpful as a pig in quicksand.

They speak English the same as here in the UK where I am, but it's
like a completely different language. Even in an email it is like they
are answering a completely different question to the one I asked.

I have asked one or two places here in the UK, but unfortunately it is
not possible to buy shares in Nintendo as they do not settle through
Crest the UK electronic settlement system.

There was one place that did it, but the charges were too steep and
they have annual fees for holding Japanese shares, plus I believe that
the minimum amount you can buy if you are buying directly in the
native market is quite high as well.

It seems the only way I would be able to do it would be via ADR shares
and all I want to do is buy some of these, but I don't know where I
can buy them from and which place will allow people outside the US to
buy them?

Thanks for any help with this
