Nintendo has officially stopped production of the Nintendo Wii all across Japan, as announced earlier this Wiik.

The system was strong in sales, but it was fairly Wiik in lasting terms.

I'm sure Wii are all saddened by the announcement of the console's death.

You can pay your proper respects to the system by buying it's son, the Wii U.

Click here for the IGN article.

This is the beginning of the end of an era. The first console of the seventh generation to be discontinued.

What are your thoughts?

these puns are terrible

Yeah those puns were a little forced, but still kind of funny. I think this is a pretty smart move by Nintendo actually. I doubt that a lot of people are still buying Wiis nowadays, so it was smart to stop making them.

I totally agree with tgags. 

Going up against the Xbox One and Play Station 4, I do not think anyone will really buy the Wii anymore. However, I feel the Wii would sell a bit better in Japan than other places, such as here in the United States. 

I guess it is somewhat of a smart move, save money from production lines creating Wii's, especially to make room for their new consoles like the 3DS. 

I had some good memories playing on the Wii (Mario Kart and Wii Sports LOL). That's about it. I really do not feel a loss, maybe because my friend has one still, so it's not like I can't find one anymore.

The Wii will be missed, but there are still going to be a lot of places selling them. Just because they don't make them anymore doesn't mean that they are dead.

alexanyways : I already knew about the wii being discontinued earlier in the wiik.
I don't know what is worse though. The wii being discontinued or these puns.

Lets all U don't have a reason not to be a wii U.
Wii should all go get them right now.

Dang.. Welp that's unforunate, The wii was a good system at it's best, This wasn't a shocker to me though. Because I knew sooner or later the system wasn't gonna be around too much longer. I mean "TM" The wii was made around the same time as the 360, But it lacked in a lot of other places, and especially 3rd party titles(aka good ones) Besides: Like tgags123 pointed out.  It's very unlikely anyone was gonna buy a wii, during the ps4 and Xbox one release, if anything People go crazy for  Newer game and systems.


Rip Nintendo Wii, Your legacy shall live on in your brother.

Hahaha those puns were great!
The Wii had its market (Causal family)
and its been around for a long time I think Nintendo finally released everyone who was ever going to buy a Wii already bought it
If anyone's wondering the WiiU is actually a decent product I bought mine for Windwaker HD and I've loved it and if you like Nintendo IP's Id suggest you purchase it also.

its kind of funny, the PS2 stopped production only a year ago. This Nintendo console life went pretty quick

I guess they had to do this at some point but this may disappoint a lot of gamers. I remember getting upset because they stopped making games for the PS2 (well not tears or anything but you know what I mean). This can be quite hard for a company to do since they are abandoning a child in theory. But maybe it is time for the Wii to leave home since its younger brother the Wii U needs the spotlight.

I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say wii loved your puns. I'm a bit disappointed about the Wii's discontinuation. The Wii was great, no doubt. I have a WiU, it's awesome! Sure there aren't many games out for it yet. But once they start coming out, it will be even better! It was a smart move for Nintendo to stop the wii production seeing as how the next gen consoles are coming. Plus, there's always a Wii stuffed inside U! xD

Yes, there is a new Wii model released within the past few weeks in the US. So Wii has a bit of life left in it in the US at least.
