Wii Mini Exclusive to Canada

[Twisted]

i seriously doubt it is only canada exclusive..it will most likely roll out in other territories in 2013 including the US...it's an attractive price point and most retailers are not gonna be carrying the larger wii boxes when space is at a premium and they want to stock wii u so this will come in a smaller footprint and a smaller box so stores can be enticed to carry the product...maybe the first run or two is going to be routed to canada as original wii production winds down and that stock probably will be sent down to the US and then once that clears out they will roll out this version in the US at least..it makes no sense to have a higher cost wii on market and have 2 separate factory lines when they need to build as many wii u's as possible..this will be the version everyone gets in the next 6 months i think.

Lol not bad if you ask me to bad i dont play my wii ever still may get one though lol.

this would literally sit brand new in the box forever for me, because I have a wii my kids play .. I would never take it out or use it.
I like the fact it looks kind of retro with a top loading flip tray, but I am with the others I might try to get a steal of a deal for it after christmas, but not going to go way out of my way for it

i would actually like to have one too..but you can expect it to trickle down to the US in the near future and other places as well..once wii u starts rolling since wii u is backwards compatible and all..this one will be bargain priced...i would pay around US $75 max as a novelty item to collect.

NES top loader and SNES version 2 came out at the last leg of it's release. So far both are quite sought after. I am not sure why Nintendo of America wouldn't release this in USA. I got $20 coupon from Best Buy and maybe I can get it this Christmas.

Seems pretty pointless to me... >.<

Nintendo did this in 2005 and it was a bad idea then too... How many people here bought a Gameboy Micro when they launched? I grabbed a silver one off ebay new for about ?30 less than 6 months after it launched... Whoever decided it would be a good idea to release a slimmed down, last Gen console after you have just launched your new console, needs to be sacked... >.< I wouldn't mind, but it's not even that much smaller! >.<

Who, besides collector's, are going to buy this in all seriousness?

I bought one after they went down in price. Then nintendo release the famicom version later. I like micro a lot. It is such a small device. Too bad it came out when ds was dominating the sales.
