Share it on Facebook Share it on Twitter Share it on WhatsApp Share it on reddit

La nuova console Wii di Nintendo verrà lanciato in Europa l'8 Dicembre 2006 al prezzo consigliato di 249€. I videogiochi di Nintendo saranno venduti ad un prezzo consigliato compreso tra i 49€ e i 59€. Segue il comunicato stampa dell'azienda nipponica.

15 Settembre 2006 - Nella conferenza stampa tenutasi a Londra quest'oggi, Iwata, il Presidente di Nintendo Co., Ltd. ha presentato la nuova dimensione dell'intrattenimento domestico. Nintendo ha dimostrato come, attraverso la nuova console Wii, sia possibile coinvolgere ogni membro della famiglia nel videogioco. Sono stati inoltre svelati attesi dettagli quali il prezzo e la data di lancio in Europa, nonché i software che accompagneranno il debutto di Wii nel nostro continente.

Wii è pronto a rivoluzionare il mondo del gioco al suo lancio in Europa, previsto per l'8 Dicembre 2006 al prezzo europeo consigliato di 249€, in bundle con Wii Sports. Al lancio della console saranno disponibili circa 20 titoli tra i quali Wii Play e The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, nonché titoli di terze parti del calibro di RED STEEL di Ubisoft, Need For Speed Carbon di EA, Tony Hawk Downhill Jam di Activision, Cars di THQ e Disney Pixar a Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz di Sega.

Il prezzo include un Wii controller wireless, il controller Nunchuck e Wii Sports, l’innovativa compilation contenete 5 differenti giochi sportivi in un solo disco. In ognuno di questi sport, non è importante quanto si sia abili con i videogiochi per divertirsi, visto che per giocare è sufficiente effettuare semplici movimenti con il proprio corpo.

Nintendo oggi porta l'industria del videogioco in una nuova direzione, utilizzando la più avanzata tecnologia con l'obiettivo di non limitarsi a migliorare l'impatto grafico e la potenza di calcolo, ma anche di consentire a qualunque persona di entrare in contatto con il mondo dei videogiochi.

Iwata, Presidente di Nintendo, ha sottolineato come Wii sia stato costruito sulla base di quanto appreso dal successo di Nintendo DS. La nuova console da casa Nintendo prosegue nell'intento di espandere il pubblico di videogiocatori come mai nessuno ha fatto prima.

Con Wii, Nintendo mira a creare una console che possa essere utilizzata da ogni membro della famiglia. Ogni console include una serie di “canali” a schermo che compongono il Wii Channel Menu. Il Wii Channel Menu è il punto di partenza per tutte le funzioni della console. Una volta connesso alla televisione, il Wii Channel Menu offre una semplice interfaccia che permette agli utenti di scegliere il software con cui giocare, accedere alle ultime notizie, caricare e inviare fotografie o persino creare la propria caricatura da utilizzare all’interno dei giochi! Altre funzioni permetteranno agli utenti di scaricare i gloriosi videogiochi del passato sulla Virtual Console di Wii.

Nintendo è convinta che offrire agli utenti l'opportunità di accedere rapidamente a internet, controllare le ultime notizie e le previsioni del tempo sia un ottimo modo per assicurarsi che tutti i componenti della famiglia familiarizzino con Wii e il suo controller, rimanendone dunque affascinati. Infatti, una volta in cui gli utenti prendono confidenza con il controller per sfruttare queste funzioni di base, il passo per coinvolgerli nel diverimento del videogioco è molto breve.

Wii verrà lanciato in Europa l'8 Dicembre 2006 al prezzo europeo consigliato di 249€. I videogiochi di Nintendo saranno venduti ad un prezzo europeo consigliato compreso tra i 49€ e i 59€.

Al lancio della console saranno in vendita anche i controller di gioco ai seguenti prezzi europei consigliati: 39€ per il Wii Remote Controller, 19€ per il controller Nunchuk e 19€ per il Classic Controller.


15th September 2006 - Today at a press conference held in London’s Docklands, Mr Iwata, Global President of Nintendo Co., Ltd. unveiled a new dimension in home entertainment. Nintendo announced ways to involve every member of the family in gaming via the new Wii console, as well as the much-anticipated price, date and software line-up for the console’s European launch.

Wii is set to revolutionise the face of gaming when it launches in Europe on 8th December 2006 at an estimated retail price of £179 (249 Euros), bundled with Wii Sports. Accompanying the console launch will be around 20 software titles including Wii Play and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and from third party publishers launch games include: Ubisoft’s RED STEEL, EA’s Need for Speed: Carbon, Activision’s Tony Hawk’s Downhill Jam, THQ’s Disney/ Pixar’s Cars and Sega’s Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz.

Included with every Wii console is one wireless Wii Remote, one Nunchuk, and the groundbreaking collection of five different Wii Sports games on one disk which anyone can play using simple physical movements.

Nintendo today set a new direction for the video games industry by using state of the art technology not just for enhancing graphics and processing power but to introduce new people to the world of video games by creating brand new entertainment that is fresh and accessible to everyone.

Mr Iwata, Nintendo’s President, outlined how the Wii would build on Nintendo’s learnings and existing success with DS and continue this expansion of the gaming audience in unique and unprecedented ways.

With Wii, Nintendo aims to create a console that can be enjoyed by every member of the family. Every Wii console will include a series of on-screen "channels" that make up the Wii Channel Menu. The Wii Channel Menu is the starting point for all of the console’s functions. The "channels" offer a gateway to a rich variety of entertainment options. When connected to a TV, the Wii Channel Menu offers a simple interface letting users pick games to play, get news or weather, view and send photos or even create playable caricatures of themselves to use in actual games. Additional functions allow users to download classic games to Wii’s Virtual Console.

Nintendo believe that encouraging users to pick up the controller to access the internet quickly, check the news or see tomorrow's weather is one way of ensuring that everyone in the household can use, interact and ultimately engage with Wii. And once users have picked up the controller to perform these basic functions, it’s a small step to get involved in some more fun game play action.

Wii launches across Europe on 8th December 2006 at the estimated retail price of 249 Euros (£179 in the UK). Nintendo first party games will retail at the estimated retail price of between 49 Euros and 59 Euros (£34 to £39 in the UK).

Additional controllers will also be available from launch at the estimated retail prices of: Wii Remote - 39 Euros (£29 in UK), Nunchuk – 19 Euros (£14 in UK) and the Classic Controller – 19 Euros (£14 in UK)
