Game & Wario to Retail at $39.99 in the U.S.

No, it doesn't have my interest and the ambassador one didn't either.

Day one purchase for me.

I preordered this a while ago in Europe for £37.85, and that's with a discount. So hopefully the price will come down in Europe to before it's released.

Yeah, this wouldn't do well for $60. It's just not worth that price. $40 makes much more sense. I might get this one day. Money will be a tad scarce with the PS4 coming out.

Oh wow! At that price, I'll buy it day one.

The game looks like garbage, and I think Nintendo knows this. The pirate game especially seems like a recipe for disaster. “Let’s shake our new strapless tablet controller up and down. What a brilliant idea! People will love having to replace their broken gamepads, despite the fact that we don’t sell such a product.” Idiots.

Pretty excited for this. Another title released on the Wii for a budget price on launch day was Rhythm Heaven Fever. Can't wait to see what the Rhythm Heaven team does with Wii U.

I was on the edge, but this pushed me over. I know what I'll be doing on June 23rd!

Probably going to pass on this one. I liked the microgames, but most of these minigames don't even appeal to me; and I didn't like the Nintendo Land minigames, which is what this collection sort of reminds me of.

@koopakid You seem upset.

Been looking forward to this since I first head of it...definitely day 1. The lower price is just icing on the cake.

Sounds like a day one purchase.

I'm getting it now.

I dont see how this will sale wii u
Maybe Wii Sports U?

Guess Nintendo's not very confident in this one, and I can't blame them. Wario's a hard character to sell. I myself was going to get the game anyway, so the discount price is a nice bonus.

I'm going to wait and see what the reviews are for this. As much as I enjoy the WarioWare series, I've heard mixed early reviews for it.

This is a pleasant surprise. I'm still not sure if I would get it though.

Cannot wait!

Not on the fence anymore! Great price point.

Never planned on getting this and still don't. I will get a 3DS game with that 40 bucks.

I'll wait for a proper Wario Ware on the 3DS.

This is even better news for me since I was willing to pay $50 day one but let's keep that a secret to everyone.

Might get this, dunno yet...

Honestly, I'll only pick it up if I see it for $20 or less. Nothing against the game, I'd just rather spend money on prepaid eShop cards.

Wow nice!
I might actually get this game

That's nice, I guess...

@demonta4 Being a fan of Warioware, Smooth Moves was a large reason I wanted a Wii.

Ehh, this game looks like total garbage. It seems like it was quickly put together as an excuse for a launch title. I honestly think it was SUPPOSED to be a launch title. That's why the games are so "meh" and not much other content is packed into it. The original will always be the best. And the DS one. They need to go back to that formula.
Nintendo knows this, so they put down the price. Smart?

@koopakid
You're supposed to play it with others, and the demo just showed the guy 'dancing' to make it seem more interactive. Tons of kids will probably like this game, and the price point is easier to afford.

I'm not quite sure what to think of this game... Some of the mini games look fun I suppose.

Wh-why so much hate!? D= It looks awesome!

I'm pretty sure smooth moves was offered at forty day one as well. It is still one of my favorite Wii games...hopefully this is good but I haven't been impressed by the videos.

WarioWare is a terrible franchise.

This was certainly a pleasant surprise, and I found it a bit tempting despite not being interested in this sort of game. I think the Warioware series is a good way of showing off what the Wii U can do with a bit of creativity.

Probably a bit late, but I like that the title pays homage to the Game&watch series.

Wario has always been fun. But I think they should sell this at 60 with a wiiu game pad. Like wii play.

Why isn't this out already????

It doesn't matter to me what price Nintendo put this game at on the market. For some reason, I don't find Game & Wario AT ALL interesting to pick up and try. $39.99 is not gonna help this with Wii U sales not one bit. That I already know.

I hate to say this because i love nintendo, but wario sucks. Has to be nintendo s worst ip.

@hendie001 you never played Wario Land, have you?

Well this game will make it a whopping 3 games I want if I ever buy a Wii-U.

Thank GOODNESS. It seems that sometimes Nintendo actually does know what they're doing.

"it's comprised of 16 mini games designed to show off the Wii U GamePad's capabilities."

I thought that's what NintendoLand was made for?!?
I'm not crazy right?? No thanks Wario, you can game alone.

Wario is genius! But i agree that he isn't the easiest character to sell. I am sure this game is a lot of fun if you give it it's chance!
However it's (again)l not the titel that promises you the graphics the Wii U is capable of, and I believe way too many people judge a game on it's graphics. There could be a crapy game with better graphics than Xbox and Ps3 and people would buy it. ..well, THAT story had been told before.

Lets be honest here guys, the Wii U launch window has been nothing but a stale turd, This should have been out months ago, ditto Wii Fit U (even though its not my thing), and don't even get me started on Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101. Rayman hurt, but at least it has an actual release date and the challenges app (which is quite good!)
I really have to stop buying consoles day one

Pre-order in EU on Shopto.net is £39.85! I expect that to go down but don't underestimate the extent to which EU is ripped off compared to the NA in software and eShop pricing happens countless times. Raw deal over here.

@Hyperstar96 My guess is because this isn't a WarioWare title. shrug

might get it, if not just to expand my collection

So no doubt this means it'll have the "budget" price of £39.99 over here in the UK!

Oh and £49.99 on the eshop!

Even at the price drop which is good the 16 mini games don't interest me. I would rather have a true WarioWare game.

I'll bide my time for a sub £20 price.

This is great news for the people that like this series. But considering I find this serious not very fun, that's still about $45 too high.

"This is garbage and isn't a real WarioWare game!" Well, it isn't called WarioWare, soooooo......

The game looks good,but it's more-or-less the Wario version of NIntendo Land.
I want it,but I won't pay any more than £30 for it.

I was planning on getting it anyway, but this price is great! :3

@Wiidsguy Are you serious??? You're misinformed if you think Nintendo would still be in business after offering that deal.

@MagicEmperor When was any koopa kid not upset?

@XCWarrior YOU HAVE THE GAME??

@LEGEND_MARIOID EU is ripped off in everything. Inflation boi.

Yeah, I'm surprised at the lack of enthusiasm here. I'm honestly more excited for this than Pikmin 3. Just total wacky madness. This opens the door for other mid-tier price points for full retail games, too, which needs to happen with the rise of digital.

@iPlayNintendo My point was not that they should do something to lose money or do it if that meant a bad decision. if there was a way to do something like what they did with wii play i think it would be neat. and smart. if not this game. they should do it with an upcoming title. wii play did great for them and was a great idea.

I can't believe that Nintendo of America thinks this is going to sell systems as you stated @Thomas. The game looks cool and will probably be fun, but it is not going to make systems fly off the shelf when it is released in America. Hopefully Pikmin 3 does that, and the Wind Waker HD remake helps sales even further. Of course they will be relying on the Super Mario U and Mario Kart U titles when they are eventually released. Hey, if G&W sells systems that'd be great! I just don't see it happening without a bunch of great reviews and hype from the internet gaming websites... (So get on that NL )

I wonder were the rest of the warioware fans go? You know the ones who play Warioware Snapped! for even an hour total or Warioware D.I.Y without the do it yourself. Feeling more negetives then positive energy around here.

@Wiidsguy
Yeah this is exactly my sentiment, it seems like a well packaged tech demo to be bundled with something. Exactly like Wii Play.

Still not cheap enough

Smart Move Nintendo

Wow! This price is... E-E-E-EXCELLENT!

Some people believe that being negative and harsh demonstrates that they have a critical eye or something.

Haters wanna hate.

I would not pay $60 for this one, but $40 makes it a lot more appealing. I just hope it is not boring as hell if you don't have anyone around. I don't have friends coming that often so I would not play it that much.

And of course it is hard to judge a game you have not even played. And if you judge from looks alone, then you are judging a book by its cover, not a wise thing to do.

@HeatBombastic Ah, you found an error. I meant to say "series." I've played 3 different Wario Ware games, but they are not for me.

That's pretty nice! Hopefully it will also be that cheap in Europe!

@koopakid Dude, most people don't even use wrist straps on the Wii Remote. You'd have to be really clumsy to break the GamePad. I couldn't tell you how many times I've banged my GamePad against something and it still works perfectly fine. I, for one, think the game looks great. Nintendo didn't go wrong by making this game. Don't dish something if you haven't even tried it yet.
