Forums - Nintendo - Mario should be bundled from now on

^

Or at least, on top of the wii sports bundle, they should offer another bundle with the New Super Mario Brothers gmae to sell simultaneously for good.

Doing so would go a long way towards capturing more Mario fans and interesting others in the Mario line of characters.

I think Wii sports is giving Nintendo a really bland, superficial image. But then again, maybe that is what is atractive to casual gamers.

Now that there is a casually-appealing Mario, it should take the place of Wii sports.

Yeah, Wii bundled with NSMB would be good. Back to the old days when Nintendo systems came with Mario (well, not in all cases...)



The only Nintendo that didn't come with a Mario is Gamecube right?
N64=Mario64
Snes=Super Mario World
Virtual Boy= Mario Tennis
NES=Super Mario Brothers/SMB3



64 was not bundled I believe...



Former something....

Mario is more well known then even Micky Mouse, i dont think nintendo needs to do anything to get people more "interested in mario" seeing how everyone already knows who he is or has played mario games



hello how are you.

What I'd like to see is that black Wii bundle over here for the Conduit. But I don't see that happening, since it's launching in just a few weeks now. D:

I think Nintendo should always bundle their consoles and handhelds with a Mario game.



Thats not true Diego.
I would imagine that SMG has a lower tie-in rate than any other headlining Mario game.

Plus I said "Mario line of characters". I actually meant to write Nintendo line of characters.



I've never bought a bundled GC and I bought 3. As for N64, I don't remember buying a bundle for that. I believe it was $250 for just the console at launch. Also, the NES you had the option to get various bundles and I believe you could buy it without SMB too.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

They should bundle a NEW ip.

Mario dosent need the extra sales, games like "The Conduit", do.
