Well, looks like I'll grab this whenever it's free!

EDIT: Wait, you can only play it for free for a few days? Well, that is lame

That's kind of lame. All they have to do is put the fucking thing on sale for half off and I'll buy it. Nintendo seems to think that putting their games on sale (as opossed to 3rd party and indie games) is somehow a bad idea. $15 for all the Wii U sports games seems fair considering they're just a bunch of rehashes. I've got the Wii Sport and Resort already after all. Everyone does.

It's like with Wii Fit, you get this feeling that Nintendo thinks everything they make is like their main IP's, that they can keep pumping these games out and people will just keep buying them. These more casual games don't have that kind of staying power, they're quite literally fads whereas the Mario's, Zelda's, etc have a fanbase that ensure a decent demand year after year after year after year...for decades. You can't put out a new Wii Sports game every 2-3 years for 30 years and expect people will buy them all.

Yo, I didn't ask for a rant, dude. I'm just stating what it is, before more people bitch and moan about it because the TC put out an incorrect title and information.
