Out of curiosity how much did the Wii Party/Mario Kart 8 bundles cost?
Super Mario Maker
Hello Kitty
Monster Hunter X
Animal Crossing.
Colorful Star
Hope Media Create White Book 2016 tell us something related to those faceplates.Ōkami;182518839 said:Looking deeper at Nintendo's hardware site, week's 48 and 49 should be pretty good for the New 3DS (as in just the small one) because there are a lot of faceplate bundles coming then.
at this rate, next bundle will be more expensive than PS4 -_-
32Gb model (prices without tax) :
2012/12/08 : launch - 31,500yen
2013/10/31 : Mario U + Wii Party U + remote + sensor bar - 32,800yen
2013/10/31 : Mario U + Wii Party U + Wii Fit U + remote + sensor bar - 34,800yen
2014/11/13 : Mario Kart 8 + remote + sensor bar - 32,800yen
2015/10/09 : Mario Maker - 33,000yen
2015/11/12 : Splatoon - 34,000yen
Soooooooooooooooo... I ask again... With this new bundle, do people STILL think Splatoon won't sell 1.5 million?
In Europe:
Launch - 8 Go SKU, without any game: 300
Launch - 32 Go SKU, with Nintendo Land: 350
Now - 32 Go bundle with Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon + 7 days of Wii Karaoke U: 300
I understand the point of not following the "GC way" and trying to not loose any money on the HW, but what they are doing in Japan is crazy.
Bonus: Halloween is on the way. It's not a big event in Japan but my girls are making the most of it.
Yes, you generally need significantly increased sales to off-set lowering your price. This is largely a finished platform that isn't selling much, so there's no reason to eat into profits.As for Wii U entry price - Nintendo might probably think that by lowering the price, gained revenues will not be as high as those revenues collected by slightly increasing the price through bundles.
Thanks Vinnk! Your reports are always much appreciated.

I wonder if they're right.
personally, I don't think a pricecut wii U would start doing 15k and up, so maybe keeping the price stagnant works. But you never know.

Great costumes! Are those hats homemade?
Anyway, thanks for the impressions. Always an appreciation here for Vinnk's Village.
Isn't this just a limited run like the #FE one?
You are including taxes in some ones. Without taxes should be like this:
2012 Launch - 30,000¥
2013 Family Bundle Set (Mario U & Party U) - 31,238¥*
2014 Mario Mart 8 Set - 32,800¥
2015 Super Mario Maker Set - 33,000¥
2015 Splatoon Set - 34,000¥
*Wii Fit Set (+Mario U & Party U) - 33,143¥

I told you. Next year Wii U for 35.000¥
No, this is a limited run like the Mario Kart 8 one.
(Yes, the MK8 bundle was limited since launch, and they stopped shipping copies this past August lol)
#FE bundle will ship 20k and that's all
Famitsu PlayStation Store Digital Estimates {2015.08.31 - 2015.10.04} (5 weeks)
PS4 Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain - 56k
This doesn't look impressive for one month and what was told for very big digital sales.
Famitsu PlayStation Store Digital Estimates {2015.08.31 - 2015.10.04} (5 weeks)
PS4 Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain - 56k
PS4 Ultra Street Fighter IV - 11,9k

PSV Tokyo Xanadu - 10,6k
PS4 Minecraft PS4 version - 8.395 units
PS3 Minecraft PS3 version - 7.220 units
PS3 Metal Gear V The Phantom Pain - 6,1k
PSV Minecraft Vita Edition - 6.055 units
2 cents of insanity: maybe they're making the Wii U price go "up" to make their next platform more attractive when it's announced?#conspiracytheories
But realistically there are too many unknowns for me to say "1.5 mil confirmed!"
Splatoon could outsell Mario Maker in the weekly charts next week... crazy stuff!
Famitsu digital sales up until 2015.10.04
[PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition [Digital Version] <ADV> (Mojang AB) (¥2.057) - 307.236
Famitsu retail sales up until 2015.10.18
[PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition <ADV> (Sony Computer Entertainment) {2015.03.19} (¥2.592) - 345.614
Famitsu retail + digital
[PSV] Minecraft: PlayStation Vita Edition <ADV> (Sony Computer Entertainment) - 652.850
It should reach 800k by the end of the year, can it become the one and only million seller on Vita next year?
Source: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4
So with digital
MGS4 after 7 weeks = 621,653
MGS5 after 7 weeks (5 weeks of digital) = 690,551
MGSV doing good.

crazy stuff that a brand new and complete game sells more than a 30 years old game with editor?
tbh I'm surprised that Mario Maker can sell as much as it did by now...

It's doing pretty well by series standards too.So with digital
MGS4 after 7 weeks = 621,653
MGS5 after 7 weeks (5 weeks of digital) = 690,551
MGSV doing good.
Seems like Game Freak's really been striking out commercially with their non-Nintendo efforts. Sega should have them port Tembo to Wii U/NX to salvage some sales.Gamefreak's mobile game, Solitaba, is shutting down at the end of the year.
