In North America, two titles – Mario Power Tennis and Pikmin 2 – join the Nintendo Selects collection. Both of these games were originally released on Nintendo GameCube but have been updated with enhanced Wii controls and are available to purchase for $19.99. Two original Wii games – Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Donkey Kong Country Returns – are now $29.99 instead of $49.99. Which game(s) will you be picking up?
That took awhile, don’t you think?
You know….I still need to play pikmin two…..
me too. i just got the first one and waiting to beat it than get the second one.
I’m doing the very same thing. Gotta be prepared for the awesomeness that is Pikmin 3, ya know?
kool :)
Pikmin 3 is spelled wrong on the Nintendo Channel (at least in America)
i want to get super smash bros brawl
Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!
I like how Pikmin 2 is now cheaper than Pikmin at retail.
About time…
I wouldn’t use the words “enhanced Wii controls” I would use more less degraded to Wii controls cause really the Wii was a total abomination
so why are you on this website then if you don’t like the Wii?
yet the wii sold the most consoles…
that’s funny because the controls are A LOT better for this game on the wii.
You’ve never played Skyward Sword… that much is clear. And that’s not even close to being the only gem on this console. This console was great.
Yes, yes it was.
I’m sure Nintendo would agree with you! Not like it’s their best selling home console of all time by far or anything.
None of them. I already own DKCR and SSBB for the Wii, I Already own Pikmin 2 as a GameCube title, and I read a really bad review for Mario Power Tennis on IGN.
i stopped at IGN…. seriously you read their reviews?
‘IGN’ was the last word, of course you’d stop at it.
Haha, win.
Did you just say you read an IGN REVIEW?… HAHAHAHAHA!! that has to be the best joke ever… no, but seriously reading off a sight that is no more than a bunch of Microsoft Fanboys/girls is just plan silly.
Read off a true reviewers site like ElderGeek
Dude… that’s IGN. You’re talking about one of the most biased game reviewers of all time.
I wouldnt trust ign
IGN reviews are crap though. They take off points to wii games in the graphics section just because the ps3 and 360 can do better. I stopped taking their reviews seriously a long time ago.
Now all we need is Super Mario Sunshine on the Wii and my life will be complete
Or they could hold it off for a HD release.
Agreed.
I’ll pass.
Good time to catch up on the Pikmin series until Wii U and Pikmin 3 are ready.
Bad timing don’t you think?
It’s probably perfect timing actually. Yeah, Nintendo could have released the title years ago, but you can’t change history; and Wii is in a drought now, so it needs something. People now know about Pikmin 3, and now Pikmin 2 has been released with updated controls for $20. Can’t beat that.
oh hey, finally
just ordered it on amazon
That fact that I read this and then looked at your avatar made this comment all the more awesome.
Where did you get that icon at?
Getting ready to go get Pikmin 2 right now. This is gonna be a fun night.
DKCR and Pikmin 2 for sure.

Didn’t Pikmin 2 come out for the Wii like…2 or 3 years ago? Or is America just veeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeery late?
Yep, we’re veeeeeeeeeery late indeed. D:
All because of a dispute over copyrighted banners in the game.
Ex: Duracell.
Haha Brawl finally gets that price drop, I understand why they waited so long though, it sold amazingly well
I now have the time to play these games.
Better late then never America, Better late then never…
That’s not news.
I’ve bean able to play Pikmin 2 for the Wii a long time now. In Europe of course.
maybe I should give the pikmin series a try.
Does anyone know if Mario Power Tennis is good? I might get it.
None Wii all know HD collections are gonna be rain in on Wii U . That’s a good thing
Dont get mario tennis read ign and several websites and the game is bad . Its different people that review games on ign. The ign nintendo editors are not biased, thats the ign playstation or ign xbox crew that say shit about nintendo
I never bought Smash so I may just get it!
I will be getting pikmin 2 and I have always wanted to try donkey kong country returns so il be buying that as well.
