This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
FIFA 10 for Nintendo Wii
FIFA 10 for Nintendo Wii brings club football and internationals together in a football game featuring real teams and players from the 2009–2010 season. You build attacks with short passes, look to the wings for a cross and choose when to play a through ball. A scouting report gives you information about your opponent beforehand. You can see which players need attention and how the other team usually attacks or defends. You can start a single match straight away or choose a longer competition.
On Nintendo Wii you can play alone or locally together and against each other, each with a separate controller. The original online services are not promised as currently available. Matches, tournaments and career content on the disc remain usable without a network. Teams and squads reflect the 2009-2010 season.
On Nintendo Wii, you can play FIFA 10 alone or locally with up to four participants. You can use the Wii Remote with Nunchuk and choose a Classic Controller in supported sections. Manager Mode gives this edition its own emphasis alongside individual matches and competitions. Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for Wii ended on 20 May 2014; local matches and the content on the disc remain playable without a network.
Region and language
Our Nintendo Wii games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
FIFA 10 for Nintendo Wii includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of FIFA 10
FIFA 10 appeared in 2009 as the Wii edition of EA Sports' annual football series. The developers created a separate version for Nintendo's console around the Wii Remote, local play and the squads of the 2009-2010 season. This disc should therefore be judged by its own game types, not by features announced only for PlayStation, Xbox or PC versions.
Electronic Arts released FIFA 10 in 2009 under the EA Sports label. The Wii version was adapted separately to Nintendo's motion controls and local play in the same room. Teams, kits and squads form a snapshot of the 2009-2010 season. The versions with the same name for PlayStation and Xbox share the football licence, but do not have the same controls and game types everywhere.
FIFA 10 uses the Wii Remote to make football actions more direct and combines that approach with the familiar choice of clubs, leagues and tournaments. Manager Mode distinguishes this version within the annual series. Old references to Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection describe the original release situation; the network service has ended and is not presented here as currently available. This makes clear which features belong specifically to this Wii disc and season.
