Nintendo America has announced that from the 23rd October they will be releasing a new Wii console bundle which includes New Super Mario Bros, a special Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack CD, a black Wii Remote Plus controller and a black Nunchuk. The new bundle will be offered at a suggested retail price of $149.99. Anyone thinking of picking this up?
GIMMIE DAT CD
I’VE WANTED THAT CD FOREVER. You’re telling me I’ve got to buy another WIi to get one??? ~sigh… Looks like my gf’s getting a Wii
Or you could get the CD off Club Nintendo.
Not in America you can’t…
Good colour and a good game. This is a smart bundle for nintendo!
They are really trying to push the Wii this Holiday Season.
No thank you though I have a Wii. Plus you can’t transfer your stuff anyways.
It would be nice if we could though. I wish this bundle was available when I got my Wii.
I think you can transfer save files by putting them on the SD card. Except for Animal Crossing, that is, for some reason.
Only the files that can access internet like Brawl, Mario Kart, Wii channels, ect cannot be moved/copied
I might buy this just for the CD, then sell the rest of the things @u@
Or I could just do that… still gonna lose money though, no one’s really buying Wii’s for more than $100 these days
Nope. Got that game (well its my lil bro’s) and a black Wii that will play my wonderful Pokemon XD for me. And honestly I kinda like the look of the old Wii better.
if nintendo had a harddrive transfer kit like microsoft,i would have bought a black wii a LOOOOOOONG time ago.
You can transfer all data through hacking if you cared enough.
i dont wanna hack though…
Why not? It’s easy to do plus it will allow you to do other cool stuff like allowing you to play imports.
Take the white wii apart
take that black wii apart
switch outer casing
done!
nope! the new wii design is stupid, and i already have mario bros wii. though that CD is nice…
but here’s an idea… xenoblade, the last story, and pandora’s tower!
That is a great buy!
If it’s a Wii Slim, I don’t want it. I’d like to be able to sell my Gamecube if I’m gonna be picking this up.
I doubt you’d even be able to sell your GameCube even if it wasn’t a slim Wii. GameCubes are about a dime a dozen and can easily be scooped up for about $20.
this new Wii have something new? resolution maybe???
No. Just doesn’t come with any GameCube features. Doesn’t play GCN games and it has no ports for the controllers or memory cards.
Who doesn’t already own a Wii?
And at this point, people must be saving up for the WiiU.
Give me a crimson blue Wii and I’ll give you my money right away even if I already have a launch Wii.
Also, am I the only who thinks this new look will be the death of them? The Wii shown in the box is sitting on its side, but that’s what they were going for when they showed off the Wii U. People might think the Wii U is an expensive Wii U. They should’ve kept the old look to prevent confusion.
can you be clearer sickr… is this a new wii BUNDLE (as im old wii but new bundle) or NEW WII bundle (as in new wii without GCN compability new bundle) cause i remember reggie saying the new wii (no gamecube support) wouldnt be coming to NA. also if itd the old wii itll be worth it, if its the new wii, itll be kinda pointless since you could just buy the wii for 99 and the game for $40 :l
So the non-compatibiable Wii is coming here as well. those who support nintendo already own a wii and NSMBW so what Nintendo needs to do is stop production for the Wii and allow the surplus of Wii console currently available to sell. I’ve seen the same amount of Wiis at my local target for the past two months. And who knows how much they have in the back when those sell.
NOA could have released a NEW color here in the states … also, is the “improved” Wii slim?
u know wht isnt fair is how theyre making wiis with no gc compatbility to reduce its price but their still selling it at 150 :/ honestly ive been really tempted to buy one of the new colours bcz i got some cash lying around and ive always wanted a blue wii console
is cosmic mario smoking?
…
FUCK YOU NINTENDO! I HAVE BEEN WANTING THAT CD FOR YEARS AND YOU’RE TELLING ME THE ONLY WAY I CAN GET IT IS TO BUY ANOTHER WII? THIS IS BULLSHIT!
I want that CD.
This should have been the launch-set for Wii. A few years late Nintendo…
WTF Nintendo, Jeez I guess I’ll be buying another Wii. Good thing I got a new job that pays hella good
Nintendo needs to beat Microsoft”s “new” Xbox 360 somehow, and putting out bundels works.
Oh wait, that Wii us a slim. Nintendo of America said it was not coming out.
Hey, i wanna know something, yesterday i bought this same wii with the same cd, but it doesn’t have compatibility with Nintendo Gamecube? WTF? REPLYYY!!!!
