I want a Wind Waker or Pikmin bundle in Australia for under $400 and i'm in. There's a monster hunter bundle, but I don't really care about MH.
Yes? I'm pretty sure that's why people are happy to see a push in a (theoretical) positive direction. Will the general public even care? Who knows.
It's very next-gen in this day and age.
What's the ps4/xbone minimum?

Existence.
And it just occurred to me that with Sony's announcement, Nintendo has another three months all to itself in Japan. In that time: Sonic: Lost World, Donkey Kong: Tropical Freeze, and Super Mario 3D World will all release. They may do decent for themselves in their home country, actually.
And if they can come up with some more killer apps during/around PS4's launch, they may not do nearly as poorly as GAF thinks.

DK has no release date in Japan and is said to be next year, but Wii Fit U is launching Feb 1 at retail, 3 weeks before the PS4.

Sonic is basically irrelevant in Japan unless he's at the Olympics with Mario and I don't think DK is currently slated for Japan 2013.

Yep. Wii Party U rules. It was my favourite game at Gamescom this year. Simply pure distilled fun.
Damn at the white 32Go model, I knew I should have wait
It's in japan though... They had white Premium models for a while... July to be exact.

Why don't you want to win, Nintendo. Why?
Well they do have the olympic game this year so....yeah.
A Nintendo Direct has to be soon.

At these prices? No they wouldn't of.
Wait: Iwata said in the Fit U direct that you can't download the game on a basic model and you need an external HDD.
Was I dreaming?
That was the reason why I indicated that the 32gb bundle with three games could have been the right moment to introduce a bigger HDD model, imho.
don't know if the market will eat those bundles, but 32gb model, remote plus, sensor bar, wii u and THREE games are too expensive at that price? when PS4 and Xbone are way more expensive without any game bundled?
don't know...
Probably refering to the original 8GB Basic, which they are not making anymore.
yes, was referred to that, but
if around 3 should be downloadable also on the basic...
Iwata was probably warning users that already have 5GB+ on their HDD.

We don't have the exact numbers yet. Also, if you've got 3 GB left on the basic model it means you have downloaded absolutely no game/app, no game/app update data, you've got no save whatsoever, which is an uncommon situation. For example, maybe if you download Nintendo Land's update (~300MB) then you wouldn't have enough room left for Wii Fit U. Iwata's warning is completely logical.
Wii U Internal Storage Space Information
you are right, my bad.
if mario+fit+play will not occupy almost all the space, than I think it's a very good bundle (considering also the fit meter, the remote plus, the premium eshop promotion, the sensor bar)
You place too much faith in Nintendo's marketing team.

hahahah wut? did you see their pikmin 3 TV ads in japan?!
Wiimotes have not been a thing for years. Wiimote plus is the standard since 2011 or so.

If this was in the US, I'd definitely recommend the Wii Fit bundle to my sister.
Remember when you could buy Super Metroid, Mother 2 and that Fire Emblem game whose name I don't recall and a bunch of others for measly 30 cents? You're welcome.
Not enough!

You got Wii street U for free, anyone that gets this bundle will have to pay for it

I don't understand how this changes anything in Japan to be honest. Are people just going to suddenly be excited in Japan for a Wii U that has been selling 5k per week in the past months?
Just wondering if this really will do it.

hope you are right, still over a month away, Japan needs to avoid buying a Wii U for 5 weeks then when this hits I want to see the Media Create numbers that will be interesting to see if it helps
Great bundle. Now they need to bring these everywere and promote the shit out of it. With the big franchises coming and good marketing there will be at last decent numbers even with the other two consoles around the corner.
I still cant believe how bad they fucked up everything these months...

You're free to feel entitled to irrational demands.
He wants the keys to Reggie's Rolls Royce.
Of course, we don't have any idea how will these bundle will move WiiU but at least we are seeing something positive from Nintendo that they are trying to market their console. However, if it will sell or not is another thing.
