Dude, stop embarrassing yourself.

Anyway, how much do Wiis cost nowadays? Are they still around $250?

...Was that supposed to make you look good or something?

Also, you're off-topic.

Yeah, Wiis are still around $250. Nintendo's had no reason to lower the price yet!

Well, I don't blame them. How much does the Nintendo DS cost?

It should have cost around 100 now... if it wasn't the success it is...

they said they were aiming for a 99$ console... I guess good intentions get left by the wayside when you make so much money 😄

100 bucks, 120? 😕

The $99 thing fell apart due to the expense of the flash memory inside the Wii.

But indeed, the reason the price has not dropped for the Wii is because it doesn't have to- people are still buying every single one Nintendo can make at the current price.

The price will drop when demand does.

360 izz da best handzz down

Must say I loved this trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/player/40750.html

Fun thing is,

Spoiler:
all the games are fake, there's never been any Matt Hazard series, his first game will be this one,
and it's supposed to have a "satirical" view on other games like Doom, Duke Nukem, Terminator (character) etc

(Decided to post it here since it might be a bit early for it's own thread)

I am not sure you can satirise Duke Nukem now; it;s become such a mockery black hole that further insightful comment is no longer possible.

It appears that Sony will NOT cut the price of the PS3 this holiday season.

Question is....do they need to?

To stay competetive, yeah, should probably

Well, they have two games coming up that might be consider Killer Apps.

Resistance 2 and Little Big Planet. Those could be consider console sellers....well, so is MGS4 but that's another story.

ermm

I'm sure those games will be big sellers, but I doubt anyone will buy a PS3 for those games alone.

The New Xbox Experience(dashboard update) is coming on November 19th. 🙂

Sonys cut prices already you know....

It should do more price cuts IMO.

News from the TGS. Tekken 6 is coming to the 360.

Could it be that Namco is following the steps taken by SquareEnix? Or was this eventually going to happen?

Who will be next?

No, Sony doesn't need to do more pricecuts.

What they need to do is stop discontinuing what's currently out and then putting out a new system every few months. And stop cutting out BC.

I'm pretty sure Sony needs to make money on the PS3, they were selling them at a loss before.

That's actually normal. Microsoft was selling at a loss for a long time, too.
