Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From May 15 onwards, the Nintendo Wii will be available for $149 (€149/£129) with a line of Nintendo Selects games retailing for $19 (€24/£19).
The new Wii bundle, available in black or white, replaces the previous Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort packages with Mario Kart Wii and an additional Wii Wheel accessory. A Wiimote Plus and nunchuck controller still feature in the bundle.
Common to the Nintendo Selects range in both regions are Wii Sports and Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City.
The initial European line-up, launching May 20, also includes Warioware: Smooth Moves and Mario Strikers Charged, while North Americans benefit from budget-label versions of Mario Super Sluggers and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
The price-drop comes ahead of Nintendo's June 7 presentation at the Electronic Entertainment Expo, at which they are to lift the lid on the Wii's successor, currently known as Project Café.
A day earlier, Sony will be providing further details on their new NGP handheld, while Microsoft are certain to talk up the Xbox Kinect and may even touch on a new home console of their own.
