For some reason Nintendo only does that with their HH.


It feels like a wasted opportunity in my opinion. The only specially-designed Wii U console Nintendo has made was the Wind Waker HD one. 

Yep, and that one is lame. I have it. :(

Why all the bestbuy hate? They have an awesome returns policy. I'm not a massive fan, but in the US, what other retailer would be better? Wal......paHAHAHAHA...MART

Ah, so you're saying Walmart doesn't sell a lot of videogames?  That's interesting.

On topic, that Walmart isn't in on this does catch my attention.  It has the highest video-game sales traffic of any retailer in the world and the most pure buying power, period.  Walmart has also been pretty close with Nintendo.  My guess is that Walmart had little interest.  They dictate terms, not the other way around.


I never said walmart doesn't sell a lot of games. I asked, why all the hate for bestbuy? I for one would prefer to go to best buy to buy a game than Walmart, due to their policies. I laugh at walmart in every respect. They pump out everyuthing at an unbelievable pace, but that doesn't mean it's not a bad place to shop for certain items. If someone wants this, they will go to whatever store its at.

I guess it's a step in the right direction. I just don't understand why they limit themselves unnecessarily.

This would be a good opportunity to introduce some type of price drop. No reason not to have this at $250 with just Splatoon.


I have a feeling they're going to do that in September to go alongside a Mario Maker bundle.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

Nobody's hating on Best Buy, we're hating on the fact that it's exclusive to just one retailer and/or that the bundled games are digital. ;)

So its pretty much the equivalent of last year's MK8 Bundle just far more limited?

I can't actually remember how much the MK8 bundle cost here.
