ButtonMasher writes - Wii Sports? Again? Personally I place the success of the Wii squarely on the shoulders of Wii Sports, so it isn't really a surprise that Nintendo would want to capitalise on the now universally applauded brand name of WiiSports. So it was, that when the Wii MotionPlus was announced to be released alongside WiiSports Resort no one really felt surprised.
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.
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.
I'll probably wait until some reader reviews, because unlike "professionals" readers are a lot more honest with things that they paid with their own hard earned cash!
will the motion plus work with the original wii sports? like real time movement?
