Similar to the US, Europe will also receive a Wii price drop.
Nintendo of Europe confirmed with Edge that the Wii will also be receiving a price drop in Europe.
On October 2, the system will be reduced in price, though Nintendo of Europe refused to disclose what that price will actually be.
In addition to the price cut, Nintendo revealed that a second Wii bundle would also hit the market. This bundle will include both Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort along with a MotionPlus accessory. The bundle will replace the current standard Wii configuration in Europe that previously included just Wii Sports.
Hopefully Europe's price cut is substantial. I'm honestly surprised that Nintendo of America didn't also announce a similar replacement bundle including Resort.
It seemed pretty obvious to me after E3 that Nintendo wanted the accessory to gain serious traction. What's a better way than including it with your hardware bundle?
I don’t know about you, but I always have a tough time getting through E3 without squealing with glee at the thought of so much gaming goodness coming in the next year. The bigger the E3, the bigger the squeal, and this year I’ve almost gone hoarse. With so many amazing games on the horizon for both current and next gen, it’s tough to focus on favorites. However, everything shown about The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt tickles me in a way that few games do.
