Nintendo: Wii Fit launch will be one of our biggest ever

shuandrew | April 18, 2008 | News | Wii 
With the launch of Wii Fit just around the corner, Nintendo has spoken out to confirm that its launch will be bigger than that for the console itself, and that it is doing all it can to satisfy demand.
Nintendo has announced that it will be pressing the launch of Wii Fit in the UK more than it did for the console itself.

    This is a surprise, given the limited numbers of copies the UK will apparently be getting. Usually a game gets massively hyped before you realise you haven't got enough units to satisfy all demand (or to satisfy any at all without detracting from other countries, a la Brawl). If Nintendo's production capabilities are as stretched as the events of the Brawl farce make us believe, won't hyping this one cause problems instead?

    How and WHY would this be a bigger launch than the Wii itself? Really, I still don't understand why all these gimmicks sell so well at all.

      Simple half these people just like wasting money on a thing they never use, just like home gyms.

    Well, it's a fitness tool and a game in one. That's guaranteed to be popular.

      But so was Wii Sports when it was first unveiled...

      I can't see how this is going to go huger than some other games that are coming out but I can definatly see it in the Top 10.

    I don't think it'll be bigger then when the Wii was first made, it's just a fitness game. I can't see it appealing to kids, and teenagers.

    I can say with confidence that Wii Fit Launch won't be bigger than the Wii Launch or the Brawl Launch.

    Zeon I is probably right. I think Brawl's launch will be bigger. And much later, obviously.
