Procrastinater 10/25/11 11:18:00 AM #1:	For the same price as the current Wii. And also come with New Super Mario Bros. Wii and the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack. The current Wii will still be sold though, with Mario Kart Wii and a Wii wheel, and Gamecube compatibility. http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/16/gamecube-free-wii-refresh-heads-to-north-america-competes-with/ -- Procrastinater - So Good *~Board 8 Late Night Crew~* <cite>Procrastinater posted [p:476178] in So Nintend...

PartOfYourWorld 10/25/11 11:41:00 AM #11:	From: PrinceKaro \| #008 Why the f*** would anyone choose not to have one with backwards compatibility when it costs the same as a regular Wii? Probably because they wouldn't know. I don't think either SKU's box makes mention of backwards compatibility (at least not in big bold letters). I'm having a tougher time understanding why Nintendo is still bothering to sell the old SKU in the first place. If you're going to be dicks and phase out the BC, then phase it out. I have my doubts as to whether they really are still manufacturing the old SKU. They could just be clearing all remaining inventory. -- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! <cite>PartOfYourWorld posted [p:476188] in So Nintend...
