Nintendo unveils new bundle

Nintendo has unveiled their new Wii bundle, to be released in South Africa in the Spring. The bundle will consist of a newly configured Wii console with Wii Sports and Wii Party – which is just in time and perfect for Christmas. The Wii has been newly-configured to sit horizontally, rather than vertically.

With more than 80 fun and hilarious mini-games, Wii Party will bring a lively atmosphere into any living room. Compete or co-operate in 13 different game modes and, for the first time, take the action out of the television screen as the House Party mode turns your living room into a pivotal part of the game play.

Wii Sports offers five distinct sports experiences which make use of the motion controls enabled by the Wii Remote. Swing the controller like a racket in Tennis, and grip it like a bat for swatting fastballs out of the park in Baseball.

In Golf, you’ll tee up and hold the controller like a golf club and swing naturally to guide the ball onto the green.

The new Wii bundle launches with the Wii console in white, a Wii Remote Plus controller, Nunchuk, and copies of Wii Sports and Wii Party. A number of other Wii bundles will be announced this season all offering great value.
