Wii U sales at 400,000 units within past week, DS outsells 3DS, more
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, DS, News, Podcast Stories, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo sold more than 1.2 million hardware units during the past week, according to NOA president Reggie Fils-Aime.
Breaking things down more specifically, over 700,000 consoles were sold. Wii U came in 400,000 units sold while the Wii moved another 300,000 systems.
Regarding Wii U’s performance, Reggie said that the console’s limited stock impacted sales. He noted that the company “is essentially sold out of retail” and when stock is replenished at stores, “they’re selling out immediately.”
Rumor: Original 3DS to be discounted to $140, 3DS XL Mario Kart 7 bundle next week
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 0 comments
The original 3DS will allegedly be getting another price drop soon. Nintendo will adjust the MSRP to $139.99 in about two weeks, new rumors suggest. The system currently retails for $169.99.
Next week, you’ll be able to grab the 3DS for $10 cheaper than the upcoming price drop. Target will apparently sell the handheld for $129.99.
Meanwhile, a 3DS XL bundle featuring Mario Kart 7 will also be available next week – at least at Target – for $199.99.

Ancel on Rayman Legends’ NFC experiment, believes the feature can be innovative
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Before Rayman Legends was officially announced, an internal video leaked demonstrated how the game could take advantage of the Wii U’s NFC functionality. This feature won’t be making it into the final game, but Rayman creator Michel Ancel does believe in NFC’s promise.
Ancel told ONM:
“We didn’t announce this officially and it was more the kind of experiment we do when working on new hardware like the Wii U. We had prototypes of this and we believe that having real objects manipulating gameplay could be quite innovative. But again, this was a prototype and we won’t discuss it until it’s ready to demonstrate its full potential.”

Cloudberry Kingdom not launching this month
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Cloudberry Kingdom developer Pwnee Studios originally hoped to have the team’s game out for the Wii U’s launch. That didn’t happen, and it won’t be out within the next few days either.
When asked if Cloudberry Kingdom would launch this month, the studio said:
”Unfortunately it is not. Looks like we’re going to delay for a bit and go for a simultaneous launch across multiple platforms.”
Pwnee Studios hasn’t shared a new release window. Surely it’ll be hitting the Wii U eShop before the end of the year… right?!
