It'll be the biggest thing since Disneyland with a lot less barf and waiting in line.

I think I'd still get the game if it wasn't bundled. It looks like great fun and I would have a blast playing with my brother, nieces, nephew and relatives.

Will remind me of the N64 days of gathering around a TV and having fun...

I don't understand why you guys feel that you shouldn't have to pay for a game that somebody worked hard to make and that you would enjoy playing.

I wonder if the reason they're not sure if it come with the Wii U, is because they're debating on making NSMBU the pack-in game.

If NSMBU was a pack-in, I would be playing the Wii U nonstop. If NintendoLand was a pack-in, I would play it alone for a few hours, but then I would need to get my brother in the room... Don't get me wrong, I will buy this game if it isn't a pack-in, but it won't be first on my list (unless it is a launch title.)

As far as I know, it's the only game announced as being available on launch day, and not just within the launch window.

The more I see, the more likely I'll buy it even if it's not bundled. Then again, with the success of games like Wii Party, which still is in the top 20's of the Japanese retail chart, I won't put it past Nintendo.

I hope not though.

What I'm thinking, is different bundles. One with Nintendo Land, and one with NSMBU.

...Wait, then Nintendo Land will never sell. Hmm..

I would pay for it, but if Nintendo wants this to be the Wii Sports of this generation (or Wii Play) then they should include it in. No different bundles, just the console and Nintendoland. That would increase their sales too seeing as everybody is pretty lukewarm about it. They don't want to do the same mistake with the 3DS.Then everyone will know what it's all about (the WiiU).

I would think that they'd go with Nintendo Land as the pack in, as I'm sure it's a cheaper game than NSMBU. Either way, whichever game's not packed in with the game will still be available for download, so you'll be able to plug the Wii U in, get on the eshop and buy it as soon as you hook it up. So I'm not worried about which game is a pack in and which one's not. Nintendo is going to get my money either way.

I had totally forgotten about that... Should I download all my games... hmm... I do hate swapping disks...

...Well, know that I think about it, since NintyLand (supposedly) shows off the Miiverse so well, that's another reason it should be a Pack-in.

I hope so. Not to be a cheapskate or anything but I want Nintendoland and still be able to buy a Wii U Pro controller (if I have enough). I hope 500 is enough for a WiiU and NSMBU.

Some of me wishes New Super Mario Bros. U was bundled in, just for the sake of old times! But the best way to attract attention, to the Wii U, its controller, and the Nintendo franchises, is with Nintendo Land. It really is a clever idea. I just hate that it was met with such negativity.

I do think it should be a pack-in game, and it's a brilliant move if it is. Even Brawl, despite mega hype and how beloved Melee was, sold only a small fraction compared to NSMBWii or Mario Kart Wii, and having a free game on the next Wii console, like what they did with Wii Sports, with Mario characters and also characters casual gamers often don't care about, it could actually be a brilliant way to get people into series like how people got into a series from Smash Bros. Granted, this is the entire "have casual gamers get more hardcore games" stuff that was supposedly a major point of the Wii before Nintendo completely missed that point, but even right now it has a good chance of being as brilliant an idea as Wii Sports from a business perspective.

I have no idea if this game will be great or dissappointly mediocre (doubt it will be awful or anything), so I'm not even commenting on the quality of the game, as much as I tend to prefer that instead.

This is somewhat off topic, but I was reading a (somewhat old) Smash Bros. Fanfiction yesterday and the author called the world "Nintendo Land". I'm thinking to myself, time paradox?

I remember when I was going to write a Smash Bros. fanfiction story back in 2008 in which a Nintendo theme park was the hub. The only difference was that it was named Nintendo World. However, I'm sure most Nintendo gamers with an imagination have dreamed of a Nintendo theme park.

Yeah, seriously. If Nintendo wanted to make some REAL money, they'd have an actual theme park built. I can see it now...

I hope you're being sarcastic

Yes amen to this.

Or how about any other game that will be fun for more than three minutes.

I'm more excited for Nintendo Land now. Watched some gameplay for Zelda Battle Quest. Looks like some fun arcade-style gameplay (I hope you can do 1 player-only). And the music playing was an awesome remix of "The Dark World" (A Link to the Past fanboy SQUEE!!!)!

Game looks fantastic. Still think it was presented horribly in the E3 presser, but the more I hear about the better it sounds.
