Rumor: Best Wii Buy

By Spook. Friday, 18. September 2009, 20:12:44

, , , ,


First it was Toys R Us, then it was Target... This time, it's Best Buy who comes into the Wii price-drop rumor confirmation with this leaked BestBuy printed ad, apparently coming from an inside source.

Everything points towards a new US$200 price point for the Wii, in what would be an obvious response to Sony's lower PS3 price tag and subsequent Microsoft's XBox 360 reaction to match it. Is this lower price a permanent thing? Is it just a seasonal promotion? Are these VERY early Thanksgiving offers? Is Santa Claus waking up early this year? You be the judge...

I really don't see why the had to lower the price anyway. It was already cheaper than the PS3 and the XBOX360.

Yeah, but 50 dollars cheaper for a less graphically-capable console, without BluRay or DVD player (without hacking it, anyway) and without the ton of multimedia and connectivity features of Nintendo's competitors seems like a good reason to pay the 'extra 50'... now with 100 dollars appart again, the Wii becomes a bargain once more.
