Remember that
new Wii SKU recently discovered? Well, Wired News did some rummaging, and found that the UPC (or Universal Product Code) attached to the new SKU is registered to a little something called "Wii Play N' Learn".
It's looking like Nintendo is sticking to its guns, and aiming them straight at young children, more than likely aged 3-8, in an attempt to... educate them? Wii has been such a phenomenal success with all categories since its launch in November of last year, and you can be sure that the Japanese giant will be wanting to maintain a firm grasp of its new found market.
Since the product description clearly says "Wii Play N' Learn", it is not yet clear if this will be a standalone product, a Wii console package deal, or both. With the holiday season coming up and Wii demand steadily on the rise, Nintendo will want to make sure they have something to offer everyone. Santa's sleigh will certainly be full of Wii products this year!
Another possibility is that Nintendo are going to package existing games with Wii under special names. For example: The "Wii Play N' Learn" package could be a Wii console, a copy of Wii Play, and a copy of Big Brain Academy. Curious? So are we.

This sucks ass. I wanted something more targeted towards the hardcore. Damn you Nintendo.
Yeah I totally here you man. It's getting irritating
I am almost certain now that Nintendo has officially stopped targeting hardcore, probably because there are much more casual gamers out there and thats what they care about
Ya they really need some more games that arent just considered for the casual gamer.
i want some hardcore nintendo!!!!!!!
Petition time anyone? I really feel that Nintendo is ignoring the hardcore gamer.
online petitions rarely ever work, I say we kidnap reggie and hold him for ransom until nintendo gets their act together
Go ahead Kindrik!
I think Wenis' plan is much more effective.
i do anything to get some good games at this point !
p.s. what dose sku meen?
I think Wenis' plan is much more effective.
I disagree I bet everyone who works with Reggie wishes someone would kidnap him so they don't have to put up with him.
^^some one finally said it lmao i hated him it's been a while but since that surprise thing
online petitions rarely ever work
I know. But imagine if we could get it to spread to other sites as well. Either way, I want to be sure of what this is going to wind up being first.
once again, phail nintendo
Oh Nintendo, how you amuse me so.
The failure keeps coming. You make me question my purchase of the Wii, then remind me why with games like Metroid and Smash. Damn you.
Did you guys REALLY think you were buying a hardcore gaming console???
Seriously?
With that said, I love my Wii. I bought it because I'm NOT a hardcore gamer.
No we didn't. But we HAD hoped Nintendo would have a little respect for its fans. But so far it doesn't seem so.
Nearly time to give Nintendo the the big finger and choose another console to support methink.
Wii truly is ONLY a secondary console.
Whats with all the hate.
LMX is going to leave his true love metroid behind?
That'l be the day.
Wii has got some great hardcore gaming moments for us all, resident evil 4, manhunt, metroid etc.
For all we knows its wii play'n'learn to kill mercilessly.
