What about wii accessories? Anyone into them? I picked up 2 "Nyko Wing" wired controllers for cheap at a thrift store in gold/black color and the quality seems really high, has anyone use ld them? What accessories do you prefer.

Did my eyes deceive me or did I see Let's Dance 2017 for Wii on the shelf at WalMart this weekend? If so that's crazy that Wii games are still hitting the shelves while the Wii U is preparing for its final releases.

Let's Dance 2017 is also announced as a launch title for Switch. If true, it would be the first time the same game title is simultaneously released for three different console generations. Well the Switch version got delayed slightly because it hasn't launched yet.  

And I guess you could argue that Ledgend of Zelda Twilight Princess was released for three consecutive systems as well, but that's also apples to oranges due to the span of time between the original and HD release.

I'm not referring to game franchises on multiple systems, as those are generally considered sequels rather than ports. Just because say "Tetris" was released for every Nintendo handheld ever doesn't mean it was the same version of the game each go round.

I do believe this will be the first time in video game history that this happens with a game.

LOL. FIFA 14 and Just Dance 2017. A sports title and a party game. Who'd of thought.




How common do you guys think JD 2017 will be? How rare is FIFA 14. We well know Wario's Woods was the last licensed NES release and it isn't uncommon, even sealed.

I saw at least a dozen copies of Just Dance 2017 at Target yesterday. For $20, I almost bought one just because it will be the last release, but I don't know that I really care that much.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

FIFA 14 (NTSC) is one of the rarer titles for the PS2 for sure. I'm fairly certain it was only a regional release as you can only find it from sellers in certain areas (Mexico and maybe some in California). 

Just Dance just seems way too common to matter. My Walmart had 6-8ish of them last I checked.

Don't bother with it. Unless that "last" release is something genuinely good (like Zelda BOTW for Wii-U), it ain't worth picking up. And do we know for certain that Breath of the Wild is the last Wii-U title?

Now someone just needs to live stream that T&A song so everyone with no interest in actually playing the game can get on with their lives... /jk

A lot more "recalled" copies of this game appear to have leaked than previously thought.

Not yet. Nintendo only said first party development ended.

It would be interesting if we see any games dual released on Wii and Switch that skip the Wii-U. It seems most games released for the Wii in recent years are just casual party and "fitainment" games.

I know a ton of families who own a Wii, but basically none who own a Wii U. I wouldn't be surprised if we see Just Dance 2020 on the Wii and not the Wii U!

Crazy to think these games were going for over 200 when the hype was sky high. What A Bust. Goes to show how a website can over inflate a games cost, or how a single seller can destroy the market instantly.

Crazy times we live in... lol

...and

Just Dance 2018 is coming to the Wii !!! The system that never dies! It's also getting a release on Wii U (which is also dead), yet strangely enough, no release on the Switch. Weird stuff... oh and PS3 and Xbox 360 getting a release too. I was certain the last game on all these systems had happened with Cars 3 last month, but I guess I was wrong.

Apparently Just Dance 2017 sold better on the Wii than any of the other systems. So there might be a few more years of Wii releases to go...

Sometimes the last game for a system is not rare. I own a "case fresh" sealed Wario's Woods for instance. I'm sure they will saturate the market with Just Dance 2018 and it will be a boring last game. I can't imagine they don't release a Switch version. Still a ton of unsold copies though, along with vacant Switch placards at retailers...

PS3 and Xbox 360 last gasp NBA, FIFA, and PES roster updates. Yippee!

So then my question to everyone is, which would be the wiser purchase...the Wii version, or the Wii U version?   Remember, Wii U has been discontinued too, and if JD 2017 sold more on the Wii than the Wii U, I have a feeling the same will happen again.

So Let's Sing 2018 and Just Dance 2018 are coming out this week and next week. Who's planning on buying them? I'm tempted to buy LS 2018 but not sure yet.

Just the Wii, for me anyway.  If I decide to collect Wii U later, then yes, I would buy it for that too, haha.
