An EA executive believes the Wii may retail for $170 American. (http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=19149) An exceedingly low price point, if this is the case, and good for those of you who want to get the console on its release. As of today, that's $189.62 Canadian.
Man, those estimates are cheap... it will be imposable to resist getting one at launch at that price.
I believe the Wii will cost 100 Gold Coins and a Mushroom power up.
I'll wait until I see the price sticker before jumping up and down.
for every one of those is a $220 and $250 estimate. The guys at 1UP were told by a couple of "unnamed sources" that it was getting the $229 price tag. Either way for a Gamecube with a funky controller it still all sounds a little steep. Don't get me wrong i'm super curious to this thing, but when developers like Rein, Carmack and Molyneux are all backing away from it; all the titles its gonna see are games I feel I might be less interested in. Japan will make that thing sell millions though, thats for certain.
$249.99 in USA on November 19. I'm gonna guess $279.99 in Canada
I know what I want for Christmas. No telling if I'll actually get one.
