Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Nope.

what
Doubt it, the mini supports the Wii classic controller, no mention of the Wii-mote being supported as well. I don't think the Mini supports any wireless connectivity.
This should work

I don't even remember my controller being that long.
Well then. Should be ok for me still but what a bummer.

Fuck this company.

I think that's the plan. They didn't started with Wii U and 3DS physical releases because of how late it is and some games still around with Club Nintendo codes.

Are we positive we can't charge this thing yet? I swore I read that it had a built in rechargeable battery. That said I got more than one electrical socket in my home. Just seems cheaper than spending $10 a pop on controller extension cables.
Long ass USB isn't out of the question either, at least they aren't exclusive to one device too.
Surely they must be Gold coins, though.
A rechargeable battery for something that still needs to connect to your TV seems very, very useless.
But given the size and portability of it it makes sense to me. Just throwing it out there.

Surely Nintendo has a better reason for the shorter cable other than cost cutting, right?
Maybe this product had the Japanese/NYC market in mind since those people live in 100sq/ft apartments and thus don't need a 9 foot cord.

I guess they wanted to make sure they could market this at the price of a regular retail game so it would sell like crazy. And I'm assuming making controllers wireless would add to the cost when they're probably already not making much of a profit on these.
I just don't understand how they didn't see the backlash coming for the cord length. Nobody is going to be happy about that. They practically ruin the appeal of the console with that one oversight. Business as usual for Nintendo.

Not making much of a profit on each one sold? I doubt that.
Unless they got the rights for those third party games super cheap, I can't imagine them making big money on each unit sold. I think they're just banking on selling a ton of these things which they will at the price. But there are going to be a lot of unhappy people when they go to set it up.

I'm very sad that I will never actually play this for longer than ten minutes, since that cable is shorter than my arms.
Considering that you need to push the Reset button on the console in order to use save states or change games, I can't imagine using a longer controller instead of a longer HDMI cable. If I gotta have some kinda cable going across the room, it's gonna be one that makes it easier to use the new features.
Of course, none of this would be an issue if they had just put a Home button on the controller...

This would be nice if it weren't for the fact that MyNintendo is absolutely terrible at the moment :/

Where did you pre-order it? I've checked and it doesn't look like anyone has pre-ordering available.

Target and Toys R Us briefly had preorders available earlier this year.

Hey I might just buy this, thanks!
Read the topic name.
Something kinda neat I just discovered and haven't seen mentioned, as I have ours sitting here running in my office: when left alone for a bit, the unit kicks into a Play Choice 10-style "attract" mode, where it runs through the games, shows their title screen briefly, then shows off a bit of gameplay. During this, at times, it'll also change the display settings, to show those off too.
