This information comes from NOA’s vice president of corporate affairs, Denise Kaigler, who addressed the announcement of the Wii price drop and the lack of a Wii Sports Resort/MotionPlus bundle…

“Well, we never said that it would never happen. And the timing makes sense. What better time to give consumers this gift package right before the official start of the holiday season? With the upcoming launch of Wii Fit Plus on October 2 and the November 15 launch of New Super Mario Bros. Wii, it’s a great time to do this — to make gaming accessible to everyone. That really is part of our mission. We are definitely on a journey and this is a never-ending, exciting journey to expand the market and to make videogames accessible to everyone. There are 50 million U.S. consumers sitting on the sidelines, looking for a reason to be part of all the fun, and we do believe that reducing the price of the world’s most popular videogame home console will be that trigger for many of those consumers. The timing was done in such a way that it happens just before we launch these highly anticipated titles.”

“There was a decision that was made to keep the configuration as is. Wii Sports Resort is doing well — we certainly have found that consumers love it. But the decision was made for many reasons to maintain the current configuration of the package.”

Update: Bumping this to the front page because the European date is in as well – It’ll be releasing on November 20.

Nintendo can be quite sneaky sometimes. The Shantae DSiWare news was hidden in a press release of upcoming Wii/WiiWare/DS/DSiWare titles. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the Big N has taken a similar approach with sharing the release date for New Super Mario Bros. Wii. In the official Wii price drop announcement, Nintendo listed when the game will launch – November 15. We’re still waiting for a European date, but its rumored to come out on November 27.

Note: This summary is complete for the most part, but there may be some missing bits here and there. Also, I started the summary before the Wii price drop was announced, so keep that in mind when reading the summary!

Wii price drop

– Still hasn’t happened
– All signs pointing to it though
– A bunch of leaked ads from retailers
– Nintendo will be making an announcement soon
– Matt will be surprised if by this time tomorrow it isn’t official
– Nintendo has been saying they wouldn’t do a price drop
– Wii has seen dramatic decrease in sales
– Sony dropped the price of the PS3
– Nintendo probably feels it is time for the drop
– Need something exciting going into the holiday season, not just a game
– Not doing different system colors in US
– Even at $199 Nintendo will still be making a lot of money

Rumors about a new SKU

– MotionPlus and Wii Sports Resort
– Would be $250 still
– Craig hopes they do a throwback to the NES days and put both games on one disc
– It’s a drag to exchange Wii Sports/Resort discs

This is a portion of an email that I received from Capcom…

“Today at the Tokyo Game Show, Tatsunoko VS Capcom Ultimate All-Stars producer Ryota Niitsuma has announced Dead Rising’s Frank West as a playable character in TvC. Tatsunoko VS Capcom Ultimate All-Stars is due to be released in North America on January 26, 2010.”
