According to a source close to Nintendo France the company is planning a Nintendo Wii price cut in Europe, plus the introduction of new bundles and colors. This price cut should go in affect sometime in May and it should put the Nintendo Wii Sports pack at a new retail price of €149,99 compared to the previous €249,99. According to the source Nintendo is also planning a Mario Kart Wii bundle, which should cost €199,99. Last but not least, Nintendo is planning to release a third bundle which would include a Nintendo Wii console including two controllers and two games. No official response from Nintendo yet.
The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.
The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
Modders have cooked up something pretty special – a Wii console which is small enough to fit on your keys. A wee Wii.
The motion-controlled maverick of a console that had everyone from age 9 to 99 swing a TV remote to bowl and painstakingly recreating themselves as Miis, had its share of hits, but even so, some titles didn’t quite get their due.
Love this game (played on Vita) and i think i got pretty far, but never finished because i refused to look up a guide 😎
Same with me, played for like 50 hours, found a puzzle I just couldn't crack and decided to let it go. Great game
Battling with the wii on their terms is a mistake. If msoft thinks they can capture the casual market by releasing the arcade and adding a wii mote to it, then they only waste their time.
They are better off with operating on the argument that wii isn't really a gamers console and only a fad and hopefully consumers will move on
Now the Wii would really tear up the competition.
... I havent seen a Wii for sale in a Dutch store for over 6 months now. They're always sold out, and the ones they do get in, are reserved.
Second of all, I aint interested in a Mario Kart Bundle. I would much much rather have a Mario Galaxy bundle, which is a great game for someone who has no friends (read: me), as opposed to Wii Sports or Mario Kart, which is only fun with friends.
Anyway, any news about any pricedrop or bundle means very little to me, since they arent sold anywhere here in Holland.
The Wii moment is already fading off. Its time to squeeze the average user without a Wii.
150€ is like woah! gonna buy one to let it root after third week.
At this price Nintendo is luring non gamers into buy one and test it even if they never used a console before.
if Wii going to be 150.00 in europe cant wait til it comes to america for same 150.00 I'll buy a Wii then. yes Im a casuel gamer never been a hardcore game. I do play my friend ps3 from time to time
playing a game that allow you to blow someone body apart spreading blood all over the screen is not appealing to old school gamers thats why there is a balance of casuel and hardcore gamers. you'll never get casuel gamers to convert to hardcore and you'll never get hardcore gamers to convert to casuel gaming its like duh!!!!!
