About this game

Unique to the Wii, this installment of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands tells a new chapter in the adventures of the titular Prince.

His wishes are predictable: a kingdom of his own to prove his worth to his father, and a princess to marry.

Zhara guides the Prince to the lost kingdom of Izdihar, where it does not take long for the Prince to realize the treachery: Izdihar is in ruins, overrun by mutant vegetation, and all its inhabitants have been corrupted by a master-plant known as the Haoma.

About Nintendo Wii

Launched in 2006, the Wii's motion controls (Wii Remote) brought casual and non-traditional players into console gaming at a scale no prior system had achieved, making it one of the best-selling consoles ever. Because so many Wii units sold with bundled software like Wii Sports, the bulk of the library is inexpensive to collect — but it also means truly rare Wii titles (often niche Japanese-only releases) stand out sharply from the norm.

Gamevaro tracks Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (Wii) for Nintendo Wii with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.

Adding Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (Wii) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WII release dates back to 2010.
