Wii Sports Club

Wii Sports is coming to the Wii U eShop on November 7th. The game will also have an online mode.   


 
- Finally, Wii Sports is becoming a download software title on Wii U. This title of the software is called Wii Sports Club.
- All the sports have been upgraded to work just with Wii Remote Plus tech.
- There is now also online multiplayer, which was a request from the fans apparently.
- You are playing as a registered member of a club. This can be state or regional.
- There will be communication by special made Miiverse functions. Face off friendly with club members or defeat other clubs.
- The software serves as a hub, from which you can select the sports. You have to purchase all the sports seperately though.
- Available for download on November 7, 2013 in Europe and NA. October 30 in Japan. Tennis and Bowling will be available from the software's launch.
- Single sports pass (Club Pass in NA) will set you back €9.99/£8.99/$9.99/1000 Yen. This allows you to purchase a sport at your own leisure.
- There is also a day pass, which sets you back €1.99/£1.79/$1.99/200 Yen. This gives you unlimited access to the sports for 24 hours.
- Wii Sports Club is available to play for free in the first 24 hours. That was the presentation!


I really don't understand why they don't just make Wii Sports U. Also $10 for Bowling and Tennis seems like a bit much. Though I guess you could just keep buying it for $2 if you want to keep playing.

Online mode is cool, but overall this probably isn't worth it, having to continue paying for the game with fees? I'm not going to do that.

I will probably try it out with the trial day though.

I won't even take the free day.
This is pathetic, they should've made this their free-to-play game, not Steel Diver.

I totally agree, this is the same game most people already own, with an online mode. That's literally the only difference, and you have to pay so much money for it...what's the point?

They could've just made it so the entire game is like $10-15 then you get all the sports plus online play, not ten for each, that's asking for a bit much there Nintendo.

Namco is behind Wii Sports Club?

Maybe they made the online and they might also be working on Baseball since they did make the Mario Baseball games.

Well uh, that's strange. It's obviously because it's a remake, but it's a good thing the Animal Crossing team isn't working on it, as they may be working on a new Animal Crossing game instead. (which would be way better because AC isn't terrible like this is)

Wii Sports Club could see a retail release at some point.

Iwata wrote:pecifically concerning “Wii Sports Club,” we understand that there will be players who will play it almost every day just as they did with its predecessor, “Wii Sports,” while others will only play it when friends visit their home. We are now trying to increase the software’s sales potential by offering two different options for the people who will play it occasionally and those who will play it frequently. I do not deny the possibility that “Wii Sports Club” may become packaged software in the future. However, for the future of Wii U, we have prioritized releasing tennis and bowling by the end of this year. - Satoru Iwata

It would make sense to release the game on a disk since most people hate downloading games.

Also the free trail is Thursday so you can try Tennis and Bowling then.

I guess it's nice that there may be a retail release...

And doesn't the trial version automatically download itself onto the Wii U?

It might but I thought it had to be downloaded on the eShop.

Not from what I heard, I read somewhere last week that it downloads itself, although I have no idea if that's true or not.

As an owner of Wii Sports, I see no reason to pay $10 a day for tennis and bowling.

$10 a day? That's outrageous...and isn't it $10 to purchase them anyway? Why would they make them the same price?

Is only $2 a day for the day pass and it's $10 to buy Tennis or Bowling.
