Hi guys

I'm thinking of expanding into Wii game rental and sales. Is there a demand for this? Anyone interested? Are the majority of Wii gamers either buying the *ahem* games or are you strictly casual gamers?

If I started this, it will be the same structure as my PS3 rental system.

Please provide your frank feedback.

Thanks!

Woah, its gonna be tough dude. U might be needing to have only like or 2 or 3 of title. Also, what amazes me is how will u be getting ur games then?

It would help also if you could branch it to the DS area too.

What do you mean 2 or of title? Do you mean that there are very few popular titles on the Wii or that I need to hold 2 or 3 copies of each title?
Game supply I have source.

Not to discourage u or anything, but if u ask me, the people who would probably pick up the service is very few, lesser compared to the guys who are owning PS3's.

By saying 2 or 3, i'm suggesting that u might get low demands on this. Its hard to take away the people who are too used with cheap *ahem* games. But at the very least, I think you can get your support from the guys at Nintendo Kopitiam thread.

Thanks for the feedback! Ya, I'm aware that the *ahem* games market is too large to combat. That's why I haven't offered Wii or Xbox360 games for rent yet.

IMHO, is a bit tough for rental business coz of the ahem games available...but...ori games still hv a chance for sale coz some ppl wanna buy but not that easy to find wii games with good prices.

IMHO, good games for rental for wii i think can be guitar hero or wii fit smile.gif

Nintendo's official supplier is keen to push original sales and I'm in discussion with them on this now. I'll try to get good prices and pass it on to you guys!

As Kyo said. We at the Nintendo Kopitiam would be interested in it. Provided we can buy the games that we tried and like. Also, expanding to DS games is also great.

Coming soon if all goes well. The system won't be the same as PS3 game rental though since there isn't enough demand and quality games at the moment.

Will keep you guys posted!
