- LycoLoco, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16"make the controller work right."
What, like the sixaxis did? What's wrong with the controller? - msprout, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Apple Effect.
If they say it doesn't exist, start preordering. - MuTeD, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12They said the same thing about Mario years ago.
- autoacat, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9well, there's always Wii Motor Sports and Wii Play coming out.
- Brocclibob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10When doesn't Nintendo say its "rumours and pure speculation"?
I wouldn't be surprised if they developed it in a year or so. Also they didn't exactly dismiss wii sports 2 being made. - ylikone, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6That is a truly aweful pun. Mostly because it doesn't even work.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Considering that Wii sports is basically just a demo to show off Nintendo's new controller, this is not surprising in the least.
- jlgosse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5They didn't say it won't happen, they said it's a rumor. They also didn't say "this rumor is bogus". Thirdly, they also mentioned Wii Sports is hugely popular. Therefore, within a year or two, Wii Sports 2 will be released.
- VeryAngryJim, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I would drop to my knees and praise god, Allah, bhudda, etc. if there were a well implemented hockey game for the Wii.
- captainmicahp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4When has a company not made a sequel to a big seller? I know it comes with the machine here but in Japan you had to buy it separately.
- poppa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It will probably get re-branded into Wii Play or some other title. So yes, Nintendo UK just might be correct that there will be no Wii Sports 2.
- Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3not to mention Super Mario Brothers 2, 3........
Mario Party 2,3,4,5,6,7,8....
yeah, Nintendo never names sequels - LUElinks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Worked for DS Lite.
- Quix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"best game of /all time/? thats a hefty accolade to bestow upon something. when did they say that?" - apoc06
Dude, where have you been?
http://www.time.com/time/business/article/0,8599,1558498,00.html - bewareofmoose, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"if ever"?
Metroid Prime... Metroid Prime 2... Metroid Prime 3...
They're great games that follow the numbering convention. At least, Prime and Prime 2: Echoes are. I have yet to see 3 in action ;). I seriously doubt that what you decide to call a game really impacts its entertainment value in any distinct way. - Refrag, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I haven't heard anything about Wii Motor Sports and Google doesn't reveal much concrete information. Got any good links?
- carpespasm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2they already have that, it's called wii play.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Its going to go into development... Just look at the attach rate in Japan. Add online and its going to be one of Nintendo big hits.
- cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I'd rather have full games of each sport than another compilation. Wii Sports was fun and showed off the system, but I think it's smarter to come out with a full Wii Baseball and a full Wii Boxing and a full Wii Golf. Bowling is pretty much perfect already though.
- vhold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Well, regardless of whether or not it's more Wii Sports titles, I have to wonder what other games (besides Wii play) they have planned for use with the Mii characters.
- BryanQ, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Time magazine called Wii Sports the best video game of all time. With its current level of popularity you can bet on seeing a Wii Sport 2 some time in the near future.
- SpencerStarnes, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I think that would be fantastic, Wii Sports 2 would need to offer a lot of different games, like. Hockey and shooting. That would be a lot of fun, especially online.
- Lumiras, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Listen.......this doesn't mean that there won't be a Wii Sports 2, it just means it's not in development right now.
I don't know if you realize this, but the Wii is actually going to be Nintendo's home console for 5 more years or so, and more games will actually be developed for it.
There is no question we will see a Wii Sports 2 (or something similarly titled) on the Wii, but probably not next year - kendals, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Where's Wii Cricket for us Aussies?!
- MartyMcFly713, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Wii sports was just a kickoff game to get people familiar with the controls. Other sports games have and will branch off and be 20x better than what sports was as individual titles.
- carpespasm, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2out of the umpteen-dozen hours my friends and i play wii sports since launch, we've seen it lock up the wii once. it wasn't heat related and it was fine once rebooted.
- rayyy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I am sure they will come out with different variants of the Wii sports. But they will probably make it into 1 single game for each sport just to make more money off you.
- b3mus3d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1God I hope other developers pick up on it. Wii Sports is stupidly fun and at the moment pretty unique.
- djSyndrome, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Remember, this is the same Nintendo that swore up and down that Twilight Princess was going to be for the GC (and not the Wii).
- Chilllllion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You are a closet Wii fan, everybody can tell. Stop hating on the Wii you fag.
- buckynekkid, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Wii Sports is just a simple game to get people use to the Wii mechanics. I'm sure they knew it was gonna be pack-in for sometime, so a lot of money wasn't spent to develop an extremely complex piece of software. I don't see a need for a Wii Sports 2 when Nintendo is surely going to do some Mario whoring, and release a Mario title for every sport in Wii Sports (albeit slightly more robust).
- apoc06, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1sorry, i dont read time magazine. i dont read political magazines for their fashion advice. i dont read people magazine for their computer advice, and i dont read time magazine for their game advice.
i do however read playboy magazine for the articles... =)
"I discovered quickly that it might be the greatest videogame ever made." - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nintendo did not actually say there will be *no* Wii Sports 2; all they said is that it is "pure rumor and speculation.". Marked as innacturate.
- apoc06, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1best game of /all time/? thats a hefty accolade to bestow upon something. when did they say that? link please...
- orangedude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0And they held that promise... TP IS for the GC as well.
- Chubbly, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Semantics, people.
No "Wii Sports 2". Doesn't mean they aren't making another sport game or compilation. - victor85, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think the Nsiders members started this rumor.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0All consumer electronics are pieces of plastic *****, including my new TV, my laptop, my iPod, and the worst culprit of all: cell phones. Anything you buy. The companies don't care, as long as they get their money.
- GamerGeorge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I wonder what games Wii Motor Sports will contain... I know Wave Race and PilotWings are scheduled to be included, but what else could they add? ExciteBike, perhaps?
- kwee10, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Oh yeah I recond Wii Sports 2 and many other Wii stuff is going to come up by the next Christmas. Its going to be the next IPod craze.
- DRTED, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1WII sports had to be the most boring game i have ever played. About two minutes into it, you quickly realize thats its awful, the controls are terrible, and the characters look like garbage. Nintendo Wii is a piece of plastic *****.
- justinlarsen, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0Nintendo for as long as i have known rarely if ever numbers there sequels. Which is something I like for some reason Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3 is not very creative
- Runik, on 10/12/2007, -9/+1Couldnt they just upgrade the game via an online update
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -8/+0makes sense.. protecting their butts form more strap malfunctions.. few people ruining it for everyone.. awesome
- Raian, on 10/12/2007, -11/+1I know this is an unrelated topic-- but I went to play a 2-player version of tennis with wii sports and it froze! I hope this is just a bug that can be fixed and not a serious issue.
- TomP, on 10/12/2007, -27/+3@ 23r17i05o42n
Uh oh the wii people are gonna digg your down - sro1, on 10/12/2007, -36/+02 Wii or not 2 Wii (sports) that is the question...
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -47/+4It's crap anyway. Make some REAL games and make the controller work right.


What is Digg?
