That Gaming Site writes: "First impressions are important, especially when it comes to introducing a new piece of hardware. Bundled with the Wii everywhere outside of Japan, Nintendo have estimated that over 45 million copies of Wii Sports are floating around, a game that I imagine for most Wii owners was the first game to introduce them to the Wii hardware. Wii Sports Resort doesn't introduce itself in a casual manner. Instead your trip to the games aptly named Wuhu Island starts with a leap into the sky. Here you have the chance to meet Nintendo's newest piece of tech Wii Motion Plus, which as you'll see offers flawless accuracy as you twist your character around hundreds of feet in the skies above Wuhu Island."
Nintendo could be sitting on a gold mine with a past favorite.
Because we all miss accidentally throwing our Wiimotes at the TV, so let's throw some Joy-Cons.
I was always confused by Nintendo’s decision to kill the franchise. “Super” stayed with Mario titles even after the Super Nintendo. They can still use the Wii name. Hell it’s been so long that releasing a new one, or even an HD remaster, will tap into that nostalgia market.
Super was never because of the Super Nintendo. Super Mario Bros launched on the NES. The Super is because it's an indirect sequel to Mario Bros.
They can just call it Nintendo Sports or something, but using the Wii name would be a bit confusing.
Yeah i agree but i don't think Nintendo will be bringing wii sports to the Nintendo Switch samething goes for diddykong racing
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
A short time ago, NL reported on the news that Nintendo had secured trademarks for The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong which covered applications such as a ‘program for home video game machine’, ‘downloadable video game program’ and ‘program for smartphone’.
I would hope for a twilight princess hd port for the switch? But uhh....the mobile part worries me.
It's good to see WMP is actually making a difference, will be interesting to see how developers use it in future games.
Not sure how well this one will do since it's not bundled with the console and I don't think the first one made people go whoaaa enough to buy a stand alone sequel.
I have to admit I nearly bought this the other day on impulse but then I remembered I hate my Wii because of the motion control. I have to agree with Ziriux in that it should be bundled with the console but I suppose it's good to see they're improving their product.
