I've heard some conflicting opinions on how much the Wii will cost. Does anyone feel like clarifying about how much the starting price is supposed to be?

Mirai Gen · 08-07-2006, 05:04 PM

I think this is the only confirmed word from Nintendo.

$200-250 is most likely. Most people seem to assume $250.

If it's any less than that, frickin' awesome. If it's more, they're liars.

More developers are heading to the Wii.

Also, here's some more speculation on prices and release dates for Wii.

Just something I found funny. NSFW in the gratuitous focussing on bikini and short shorts, no nudity.

PS3-"People know I mean business by how expensive I am, good things cost good money"
Wii-"I'm cheap, and fun *giggle*"

Oh and in order to balance it out here's a pro-Playstation anti xbox one.

I'd post an anti-Wii one but that'd just be stupid, also I don't think there are any, at least I haven't found any.

I'm a fan of the PS3, but I still gotta say, that PS3 VS Wii "commerical" of greed's was just freakin' awesome.

Contact. It's manual. Released to the public. It's done in the style of livejournal, down to the friend requests.
I have no fears about the quality of this game. And really there's little left to say that the bundle of awesome that manual is, doesn't. Games do not get much cooler looking than this already is.

Unless my theory is right, and Brian's working on the dialogue.

Blarg! Here is 101 FAQ about the Nintendo Wii. Though it is not an official FAQ and it does leave out some of the questions on the Wii, it is quite accurate and it answers a lot of questions (some obvious and stupid, some you probably didn't even think of)

A really cool interview with Miyamoto.

Is he full of himself? Probably. Is he actually "right" when he says that the world wasn't changing the way it needed to? Probably not.

But you gotta hand it to the guy - he's probably one of the most patient people in the world, and right now, with hundreds of millions of people lining up for a Revolution of their own, the smug motherfucker's thinking, "Oh yeah, look who was right!"

I also like this. It highlights the fact that it's a guy's market, but at the same time says, "However developers were fucking stupid when they made Barbie and My Little Pony games."
