Wii Sports Club Returns to Wii U eShop with Online Play, HD Graphics, MotionPlus

Online play sounds cool but the pricing doesn't. Lots of room for temporary sales, though.

Good grief! That pricing is atrocious. Seriously, the day pass pricing is more akin to what the actual permanent pricing should be. 

Well, I called it. I made a thread a few months ago that Nintendo should make a new Wii Sports, this time with HD graphics and online mode.
Of course I also wanted new Upad gameplay, but I guess that was too much to ask.

But what, pay to play? That sounds like a terrible idea!!!

I MIGHT get Tennis one day, but even for that I'll probably wait until it's on sale.

Sounds good, but agree the permanent pricing is way too high - £5/6 at best, imo. At those pricing, if Nintendo don't do a deal on all 5 games, then it'll cost £45 total for new Wii Sports U.

£45. For Wii Sports? Madness.

Nintendo?.........Online Play on WiiU?...............Wow, they've actually bothered for a change. :/

£5 each would have been much more appropriate as I'd want to get bowling, golf and tennis but £27 for 3 mini games is just too much. Unless of course they add a lot more content to each game......

Only Nintendo get away with re-packaging software  years later and selling it for full price! The atrocious thing is that people will buy it even at that price.

....make FZero GX online and throw in a few extra features then we might start talking....

Depends how solidly its all made, with how many options, how well the single player is etc.

A solid golf game, for example, could easily be worth £8.99.  

In either case, they need a retail version and perhaps a combo pack with the WiiU.  This title needs to be visible. People that bought Wii's for Golf, Fit etc need to see these titles improved significantly for this system...not merely as a download tucked away somewhere.

We'll be lucky if we get the "Training" minigames with it. And maaaaaaaaaybe they'll include the gameplay that they showed with the reveal of the Wii U (using the Gamepad for extra play options).
But probably not.

Oh and I'd love an online F-Zero, even if it's just a lazy port.

Yes! I will definitely be downloading Wii Sports Club with Tennis and Bowling. The online play sounds fantastic and pricing sounds good.

You criticize Nintendo for updating and reselling previously released software...before immediately expressing a desire for it to happen to F-Zero GX...
