Will the addition of digital rules be enough to tempt people to fork out for the $70 bundle, plus the cost of Pictionary on top, when the cardboard version is available for £25? Quite possibly. People bought Balance Boards, and you can stand on one leg for free. Needless to say, THQ is very optimistic, saying that the North American retailers it has spoken to have been clamouring to ensure that they have enough stock come the product’s retail launch in November.

“We’re expecting about 600,000 units to go out into the North American market [at launch],” says Good. “We are somewhat restricted by way of manufacture. We’ve had retailers asking: ‘How many will we be allocated?’ The feedback from both Nintendo and retail has been so significant.”

What do you think? Will we have a mega hit? No?

Honestly wii is the only console i can't predicts hit on.Look cool  but not something i'll pick up on the first day

if the rumours are true and Nintendo do back this (Mario Paint Wii anyone?), I think we have a big hit on our hands

I don't get it when some peopel say games isn't art, this totally proves them wrong.

I think with the right marketing this should definitely be a hit. I think it would be better to have more than 3 titles (2 non bundled games) at launch, but the 3 are a good mix so I think it should be fine. I don't think it will end up being a Wii FIt like hit or anything, but I think 2-4 million worldwide within a year or so of launch is possibie.

I have no useful, controversial or debatable opinion on this, but

I just wanna express how fuckin' great that image is.

UDraw should be successful but the Vitality Sensor is where the real money will be.

Will outsell move and kinect!!

If they do something really cool with it, like Mario Paint or something completle new, it will be win.

I wasn't as high on it as everyone here or THQ... I was thinking 200,000 units would be the high end already.
