Off to a slightly slower start than most thought, Wii Sports Resort is becoming a huge title for Nintendo going into the holiday season and is actually tracking better than WiiFit did in the same time period.
Nintendo could be sitting on a gold mine with a past favorite.
Because we all miss accidentally throwing our Wiimotes at the TV, so let's throw some Joy-Cons.
I was always confused by Nintendo’s decision to kill the franchise. “Super” stayed with Mario titles even after the Super Nintendo. They can still use the Wii name. Hell it’s been so long that releasing a new one, or even an HD remaster, will tap into that nostalgia market.
Super was never because of the Super Nintendo. Super Mario Bros launched on the NES. The Super is because it's an indirect sequel to Mario Bros.
They can just call it Nintendo Sports or something, but using the Wii name would be a bit confusing.
Yeah i agree but i don't think Nintendo will be bringing wii sports to the Nintendo Switch samething goes for diddykong racing
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.
A short time ago, NL reported on the news that Nintendo had secured trademarks for The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and Mario Vs. Donkey Kong which covered applications such as a ‘program for home video game machine’, ‘downloadable video game program’ and ‘program for smartphone’.
I would hope for a twilight princess hd port for the switch? But uhh....the mobile part worries me.
Good game
I wouldn't doubt it to sell over that much. Actually a very fun game, but I have a feeling New Super Mario Bros. will blow it out of the water this holiday.
Does that make it better than Halo bots? According to your logic, it does.
I don't know. In reference to that kids games survey from earlier in the week, WSR was more popular/wanted than NSMBW.
WSR was high amongst both sexes, rating 1st or 2nd in almost all categories.

@ndpad, "The four most keenly desired titles across all ages and genders were Guitar Hero 5 (48 per cent), Wii Sports Resort (44 per cent), New Super Mario Bros Wii (41 per cent) and Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (33 per cent)."
Are you implying there are more teenagers, than kids, who will get what they want for Christmas?
