16 titles from 10 companies at launch. Price range wil be 4800 to 6800 yen.

 

[medrew]

:lol

That's the same price as a DS game, what were you expecting?

 

[sangreal]

Why shouldn't it be?

NES, SNES, N64 and GCN weren't priced by dividing the yen by 100, as they shouldn't be since product pricing in Japan pre-includes tax.

time will tell, but companies almost never use actual conversion rates when determining global pricing

 

[Father_Mike]

Selling nunchuck and Wiimote seperately? What the hell?

[Though there probably will be a full controller too with both, those being in case one gets broken?]

No controller will be safe once I start swinging the cows!

 

[Hayami]

the mysterious "Wii Stand" is the goddamn stand that has been in every Wii picture since the damn stone ages.

 

[PkunkFury]

so NOA decide to bundle WiiSports on there own? Interesting...

did they want a higher price to appear more competitive?

Do they feel they need people to own it for word of mouth?

Do they just want a simple excuse for a price drop after XMas? (remove the game and drop 50 bucks)

at any rate, considering the price of the controllers I doubt a second wiimote is bundled in NA, and if it is the nunchuck will be left out since it is sold seperate (bad move)

[JSR]

So wait, the Japanese version of Wii Sports includes boxing, but the US one doesn't? If the Seattle PI article is right, America doesn't get boxing.

 

[ethelred]

new games plz

Why, when you already said you're not going to get it?

 

[Nutter]

wii sports 4800 yen its a joke

You know, you have never made a single post where you say you actually like something from nintendo.

[Amir0x]

never are satisfied are we

I don't know what to believe

if it's...

$250 + WiiSports + 2 nunchucks = i'm satisifed, not too bad
$250 + WiiSports + 1 nunchuck =

 

[Jonnyram]

Wii Sports = Tennis, Baseball, Bowling, Boxing, Golf

 

[Mr. Pointy]

Do they feel they need people to own it for word of mouth?

Bingo.

 

[MMaRsu]

We need translators in here stat

 

[JoDark]

Zelda is hitting in Japan with the Wii...

But Nintendo SUCKS at localization (time - wise, the quality is always AAA)...

If they are finishing Zelda for their launch, maybe we have to wait for it to be translated into English? Hopefully not too long!

I want Zelda at US launch damn it!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Avutta1978]

Matt has confirmed the $250 price over at the ign boards.

did he say it comes with 2 controllers.

 

[Error]

Why, when you already said you're not going to get it?

I need some good news.

I'll eventually get it, just not a launch

 

[Zerodoppler]

It gets worse and worse. Negaton, indeed.

Hell ya! Now just gush about the face mapping technology! Boxing will own...low blows all day.

 

[Juice]

I don't think I've sufficiently overreacted enough yet:

THAT'S IT GAF, THESE HANDS WILL NEVER TOUCH A GAME CONTROLLER EVER AGAIN

EXCEPT MAYBE TO THROW AWAY ALL MY CURRENT GAME CONTROLLERS.

I'M DONE.

Okay, I feel way better now.

 

[castle007]

why would Japan get boxing, and not us?? That doesn't make any sense.

 

[Duderz]

boxing? Awesome!

But where's airplane?

 

[PantherLotus]

2:09 a.m. EST [update 11]: Gemaga reports 3,800 yen cost for the remote, 1800 yen for the classic controller, and 1800 yen for the nunchuck attachment.

 

[crunker99]

there is absolutley no indication of two controllers pakced in.. sorry ami,, ( not sure who started that

 

[cvxfreak]

Boxing?

I'm gonna be in Vegas the day of the US launch because of boxing. This is gonna be a fun game to get after the fight.

 

[Version 3.0]

boxing? Awesome!

But where's airplane?

Moved into Wii Motor Sports, I think.

 

[IceIpor]

本体同時発売 = On sale at the same time as the console

Just speculation, but that would leave about 12 days between NA's console launch and JPN's console launch.

If this is the case, then couldn't it be possible that they are focusing on mass-producing Zelda in English first, and therefore have it ready to be launched alongside the Wii?

Of course, it could be possible that Zelda for NA will be delayed until after the Japanese launch... but at least this way you guys can have some hope?

 

[Father_Brain]

To get an E rating from the ESRB?

 

[btrboyev]

But Nintendo SUCKS at localization

OoT came out here first...the dec 2 release of zelda pretty much confirms the us launch...it was already confirmed at E3 anyways

 

[Jonnyram]

16 titles from 10 companies at launch. Price range wil be 4800 to 6800 yen.

So we wait...

 

[ZeoVGM]

don't mind him. JSR just can't read.

This is what I always said: YOU EXPECT TOO MUCH. And then, you're disappointed.

[gjb-sensei]

They added bowling and boxing to Wii Sports? Nice!

I can't wait to see their "Motor Sports" package...

 

[Duderz]

Moved into Wii Motor Sports, I think.

I was afraid of that. Oh well.

Wave Race better be with it!

What about Zelda GC? :'(

 

[wonderfuldays]

Will WiiSports outsell Zelda in Japan?
OMG...

 

[Greenpanda]

^-- exactly. No way would a boxing game get through with an E rating.
