i read from nintendo life you guys can buy the premium pack by itself for £249or the bundles pictured above for £299 in the official nintendo UK store. I gotta say your online store looks better than NOA's online store

If I didn't already have a Wii U I'd be very tempted to pick up the Luigi bundle.

That's what I'm wondering. I understand that Wii U is doing worse in Europe than North America, but they need to release that bundle everywhere.

We seen Nintendo Wii U bundles, not sell well. Xbox One outselling Wii U twice more right now.

Wii U PRICE IS TOO HIGH!!!

I'm all for cross platform discussion, but there's a place for that. I have a duplicate of this thread in System Wars just for such a purpose. Be excellent and please keep it there. :)

You gave link of same thread.

If Nintendo wants to sell, they need to show TV ads, and A LOT!!!

This is the biggest Nintendo game. Also game looks very interesting, maps are amazing but if Nintendo can show this to people, then its Game over for Nintendo.

Nintendo earned massive money from Wii, but where hell Nintendo has put all their money? Dont tell me they dont have any money left.

No, look at the forum name and url. It looks like the exact same thread, but in a different place. ;)

I agree, they need to improve their marketing. The "Wii would like to play" commercials worked well back in the day, and for some reason they haven't managed to duplicate that magic. Nintendo needs ads, but they need ones that are worth a damn. The original Wii U commercials only helped fuel confusion - something that should never happen. Nintendo is supposed to be planning a marketing campaign for Mario Kart 8 that will last from launch til the end of the year, so we'll see.

Yes, this is probably their biggest game of the year. Even if this doesn't help give the Wii U legs, Nintendo won't be going anywhere. They're an extremely solvent company that will be able to crank out another console when this cycle is up. They managed to drag the Gamecube by its ankles to the finish line before moving on to something else. The Gamecube forced Nintendo to go in a new direction with home consoles and the same will likely be true for the Wii U. They maintain whatever method that works until it doesn't anymore. Sort of like the term, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Mario Kart Wii sold around 35 million copies. Which is massive. That game turned a ridiculous profit. Will Mario Kart 8 sell that much? Probably not, but I can see it moving a few consoles. There are people out there who have been holding off on buying a Wii U til MK8 comes out. It's good to see Nintendo is releasing this bundle in Europe, but they need it everywhere.
