Nintendo Everything

Wii U was a popular item on eBay during Black Friday, according to the New York Times. The site reports that Nintendo’s console “sold out 4,000 units in less than 17 minutes, with customers snapping up four of the devices per second.”

How were Wii U sales as a whole on Black Friday? That’s unclear at this point. Hopefully we’ll receive some data from Nintendo within the next few days!

How did Nintendo platforms perform on Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the season in the United States? We won’t receive any specific numbers until the next NPD report in December, but research firm Infoscout has offered some data. Check out the images above for their findings.

The Collective, Inc. – in partnership with Warner Bros. Interactive – was once working on Dirty Harry/Dirty Harry Extreme. What we didn’t know is that separate versions were planned for Nintendo systems several years ago.

Unseen64 reports that Sensory Sweep Studios was developing Dirty Harry for Wii, DS, PS2, and PC. While the Wii version was never put into full production, it would have been an “up-port” of the PS2 release with IR pointer aiming and motion control for melee attacks. The DS version was intended to be built from the ground up.
