GameFly Slaps June 30th Release Date On Game & Wario In North America

First

Ok I think that June is an ok time

damn, second...

this better be out AFTER New Leaf!!

I can't wait for them to release a proper WarioWare game. WarioWare D.I.Y 2 would be brilliant.

As such, I'm not particularly looking forward to this.

Well we will just have to wait and see when nintendo does release the real release date. Until then my wii u starts to collect dust (I know Monster Hunter 3 is out but the lack of extra spending money is low)

"The Wii U game was released in Japan at the end of March, and is the next entry in the popular WarioWare series,"

It's not really part of the WarioWare series. For one thing, the names are different, and what's more, this isn't about micro games, but about minigames. It's an entirely different focus. Just because there's Wario in there, it doesn't mean it's the same series.
Otherwise, you could also argue that this is another Mario Party, since Wario is in both Game & Wario and Mario Party.

I wish they'd just make another true WarioWare. The demo I played of this was just horrible.

This isn't truly a WarioWare game, rather than playing through a large number of rapid MicroGames, this is more like regular mini-game compilation. I'm not all too excited either. But will be nice to have another game on Wii U finally.

Actually, I hope Nintendo continue to make WarioWare games as we know them, and that this isn't an attempt to reboot the franchise.

If this does mean the end of WarioWare's microgames, I hope we get to see a Rhythm Heaven D.I.Y installment (from the team that brought us WarioWare). You could create your own simple music (or browse a bank of tracks) and create your own rhythm games. That would be awesome!

But a more compleat, definitive WarioWare D.I.Y for the Wii U would be welcome.

A 30th of June release for this and no hint of Pikmin, Wonderful 101 or Wii Fit U doesn't bode well for the release schedule but maybe they're out sooner....

When the f is the next Nintendo Direct? We need them twice a month not once every 3 months

June 30th is the last day of Q2. I would imagine Wario will arrive before that date, and the retailers are just putting a date in to drum up pre-orders.

I do agree a Nintendo Direct would cheer us all up, even if it just pencilled in some dates for us. Maybe next Wednesday?

"June 30th is the last day of Q2. I would imagine Wario will arrive before that date, and the retailers are just putting a date in to drum up pre-orders."

^this. Plus, it is a Sunday.

@Bluezealand - bonus points for pointing out it's a Sunday. The only downside to the theory is Gamefly is a rental company, not so much a retailer, so they don't have much to gain by taking pre-orders.

Could Nintendo launch this game within a week or 2 of Pikmin 3? I was starting to go w/ mid-June for that one after the Rolling Stone interview and TWs unwavering faith.

Sadly, I'm not that interested in this game. I hope the reviews are good.

I like some of the games, others I don't. This viewpoint, of course, is based on what I have seen in videos, as I have not played any demos of the game yet. I'm still quite unsure about this game. The one that really stands out is 9-Volt's game, which consists of micro games and pretending to be asleep so ones mother does not kick some butt. I need more information NL!!!!

this was probably the most unique use of the gamepad demo that I played way back at pre-launch events, might have made difference if it and 3 or 4 other good Nintendo games came out AT launch. Kinda late now, it'll hardly make me run out and buy a WiiU anymore, but I'll be curious to see how it fares.

As has been pointed out already, June 30 is just the last day of Q2. This is probably the same deal as sites like IGN listing a December 31 release date for games that are coming by the end of the year.

Excited for this. I find it funny how people are complaining about this in the comments. I just hope the release date is a little earlier than June.

I liked the GBA WarioWare that I had got for free from Nintendo [3DS Abassdor]

WarioWare is an exceptional series, I'd say it actually used to be my favourite Nintendo IP as a kid. I will be getting this, no questions asked... well, I mean, unless it turns out to be terrible somehow, which I doubt.

At this rate, it looks like Pikmin 3 won't be coming out until August or September. It just seems strange to me to think that we'll have another E3 before we see any of these "launch window" games that were shown off at last year's E3. That just doesn't seem right.

Don't retailers usually just put the 30th of whatever month the game is supposed to come out in, when they don't know exactly when it will be? Maybe it's just a tentative listing.

Until there is official word from Nintendo, I am taking this with a pinch of salt. I am pretty sure that this will be the next Wii U game to be released though, as all NOA is doing right now is translating it.
