If you are searching for a fun way to work out while at home this autumn, or know someone who is looking to tone up ahead of Christmas, then look no further. Nintendo is launching the black Wii Fit Plus software bundle on 7th October 2011, the perfect gift for fitness fanatics this Christmas.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
This hardcore gamer grandma has put nearly 4,000 days into Wii Fit!
The NPD Group has revealed the top 10 best-selling exclusives in the U.S. since 1995, and Nintendo holds all 10 spots.
And the #1 game on this list is also the #1 game (and accessory) to be found at the local goodwill.
Take a look at the 50 best selling games of all time https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...
Nintendo has always had the most mass appeal, my Mother would play Mario.
There's landslides and then there's this. Wouldn't be surprised if the top 50 was mostly Nintendo games.
people still use this crap? no, from my experience working at a gamestore atleast they don't. you get a few sales a month, but its not like it used to be where we used to run out all the time.
its nice they are bundling it like this now, and the black board is nice too, but the wii shovelware fad has died basically, all that is left is for xenoblade, zelda, pandora tower and last story to come to america and the wii is dead
nope. if they don't pull the plug like they did the cube, I see the Wii still selling right alongside WiiU, as the PS2 did with PS3
