Old Gamecube Games Now On Wii!
Nintendo have decided to release some of the old Gamecube games on Wii. You might think that you’ve got some nice nostalgic cheap games on the way. But you’d be wrong. According to Nintendo, the remakes will be sold at the same price as a normal Wii release. (Uhm, but you’re basically making the same game…? How does that work?)
For those who are still interested, the first two games in the New Play Control! brand are Pikmin and Mario Power Tennis, and have a recommended retail price of GBP 39.99, although online retailers are already slashing prices (thank God). Nintendo claims the titles have a RRP of GBP 29.99.
I suppose that the clause is that these old titles will have reworked control support for the unique Wiimote, as well as a few other updated features.
The new Pikmin will be released on February 6 in the UK, with Mario Power Tennis due for release March 6. Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and Pikmin 2 are also set for the New Play Control! brand later this year.
Or you could just play them on your old Gamecube and save a few pence. The choice is yours.
