Iwata: Wii Sports Resort out in Japan this June, overseas in July

Weirdly, I'm totally anticipating this title. I can't wait to try it out.

PRICE CUTS? PRICE CUT! CUT THE PRICE! PRICE CUT!?!

thats all i seem to hear from people these days... whats with price cutting so early this gen. Microsoft had to do it to stay on top. Now people want EVERYONE to have a price cut when they fall back 1000 consoles a week. The Wii price is at a $250 and people still want it lower, by that rate it will be down to $99 in 2011. 5 years. While the PS2 showed us exactly how to price adjust during 9 years

Slightly later than i predicted (a worldwide launch in June), but good to know they haven't had to delay it significantly

Between this, The Conduit, and The Legendary Starfy, and maybe New Play Control! Pikmin, i should have a fun summer.

Guess we won't have to wait much longer to see how much the Wii MotionPlus will enhance (or detract from) the gaming experience. Can't wait to do some 1:1 ratio swordfighting, myself.

Will this game be full price? By the time I get this game, and an extra Wii MotionPlus controller, I don't want to be out any more than the cost of a normal game altogether.

Finally =). I am stoked to play this.

How strange is it that the Nintendogs look better than the Sport Resort dog?

You know what would be an awesome experience? Having oiled up sex with an orange dwarf. Oh, the places things would fit!

I'm buying it one way or another, but damned if I'm not going to be grumbling something fierce if have to pay over $40 for it.

i understand why the ps3 can't get a price cut becuz it costs 446 bucks to manufacture, but the wii!?!?!??! didn't it's manufacturing costs lower??!?!? should there #2 priority supposed to be giving the best deal to costumers?

If you already own a Wii, which I imagine most people on here do, who cares if they price cut the console? Are you going to buy another one?

Back on topic: yaY for Motion Plus release date! Now if they'd just release a new Zelda game that supports this I could die a happy man.

This game looks half awesome and half a$$. Sword fighting = yes. Dog Frisbee = no. I have little hope that the remaining unannounced mini-games on WiiSports Resort will make me want it more considering that they already revealed Dog Frisbee. I want WiiMPlus though, so I'm hoping both EA Tennis and Tiger games come packaged with it too.

I can't wait to fight someone with that sword fighting. If it's half as good as I think, it will be my GOTY.

Im sorry but i dont' see it, not to start a war and i know i'll get down voted but just dont want it yet. If they give you 4? or they're $5/pop and the game is $20 and comes w/ one? still prob not. But in MY opinion it seems like 10% of the fun Wii Sports still is today.
They should have just improved Wii Sports to use it.
Maybe if i get my hands on it, or they make an awesome game to use it i'll change my tune.

FINALLY! A freaking mini game compilation on the Wii... it is about damn time!

Took 'em long enough!

I see what you did there. Clever.

Let's hope this title doesn't is priced at €30 or lower. It'll be game of the year for sure. This of Madworld. Or Little King's Story. Or Valkyrie Profile. One of those four.

Not sure if you'd call it minigames... minigames usually have the idea that you should try to aim for a highscore.

...Wii Sports-esque games usually just try to encourage you to just play - while encouraging the fact that the people with highscores really should stop trying so hard.

Like Wii Music, Wii Sports acts like a "toy" - as there's no real objective in it other than to play. Same will go for this. ...except this is a toy to demo the Motion+.

The main problem with the Wii is this: games. Precisely, people who buy the wii have to have another console besides it. There are just too many good games that only come out on xbox/ps3. The big seller for nintendo systems was their games. It was opposite last gen, GC people had it because they wanted Zelda, RE4, Mario. I dont know whats going on this gen but when even nintendo practically ports animal crossing, how can they expect to stay on top?

The Wii needs to reverse the current trend. It needs to be the system getting the games that make people want to have one in addition to one of their current systems. I have owned every nintendo console and not once ever considered buying a ps, ps2, xbox. Even I have been considering a xbox 360 because of RE5, dead rising (not the crap port and yes I played it), assassins creed etc..

Core gamers are like season ticket holders for a sports team, the sports teams know they have to cater to the season ticket holders even though they pay a lot less for their seat than the person who buys a few tickets a year. They know that the season ticket holders are going to come back again and again (core gamers buying more games) whereas the casual fan is going to see a few games a year (casual fan buys 1st party titles only).

Nintendo's stadium is mostly filled with fans who don't even know what sport they are watching and while the stadium is always full, the team is playing like crap. It won't stay that way for long.

damn at no edit. I meant he stadium wont be filled for long...aww hell its ruined..eff it

It's like Miis meets Waverace meets Super Mario Sunshine.

I am really excited for the new Wii Sports, but I would be bummed out if it was full price unless it was packaged as some were suggesting. I was laughing at Duke's comment about more blood and gore in AC, that would be kind of funny if you could take your ax and scare some annoying neighbors, or at least get some free stuff at Redd's (that guy needs a beating). Personally, I love Animal Crossing and Wii Speak...I would love if I could use my wii speak while playing Mario Kart or Smash Bros. online.

I guess I'm the only one looking forward to frisbee doggin'.

But what I want to know is: what are the other games in WSR? Aren't there supposed to be like 7, or maybe even 10, different games? And we're (supposedly) a mere 2 months away from this game's release (in Japan, anyway), and we've only seen screenshots of 3 of them?!?

Could they just stick with these three and "budget" price the game?
