The Conduit HD confirmed for NVIDIA Tegra devices
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Podcast Stories, Wii | 1 Comment
As originally expected, The Conduit is heading to Tegra-supported devices – including the upcoming Shield handheld.
The Conduit HD will be pretty much like the original Wii game, though it will sport prettier visuals. Players will be able to take on the first two missions for free and will need to offer up $7 for the remaining seven. There will also be an option to purchase levels 3-6 for $3 and levels 7-9 for the same amount.
It’ll definitely be strange seeing The Conduit on new hardware, but I guess High Voltage Software figured this would be a smart thing to do.

Following in the footsteps of Skylanders, Disney and PDP have unveiled the very first figurines for their upcoming NFC-based game Disney Infinity, shown above. There are four figures displayed (two from Monsters Inc., two from Cars) and a showcasing stand for them, but PDP says the stand will be able to house multiple toys, the power discs (to get them into the game) and other accessories as well.

Wii Mini sells 35,700 units in Canada
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Podcast Stories, Wii | 0 comments
Since its release, the Wii Mini has managed to sell 35,700 units in Canada. Nintendo of Canada’s Matt Ryan said that the “Canadian market has reacted positively to the great value the system has to offer, and we are seeing this reflected in the sales numbers.”
Wii Mini sales have been fairly strong since the console launched on December 7. Its performance likely motivated Nintendo of Europe to distribute the hardware throughout its various territories. Europe will be receiving the Wii Mini next month.
UK retailers pricing Wii Mini at £80
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
In Canada, the Wii Mini costs $99. Nintendo did not announce a price for the console when it confirmed the new release for Europe since retailers typically set their own prices, but most have set it at around £80 thus far.
Amazon UK and GAME are listing the Wii Mini for £79.99. Meanwhile, ShopTo has a product page open with a £84.85 price point.
Worth noting, Canada’s $99 price is worth £65 directly.
