That's not a bad price. I have been waiting for a price drop to buy one..

 

[nukemaster]

About damn time. Drop the DS while your at it....

 

[captaincharisma]

they won't drop the price of the DS. they just released the new version of it just a few months ago

 

[agentjon]

I just got one from Gamestop last week for $250 🙁
Curse my impulsiveness.

Is print screen too hard of a concept for people at engadget?

The $199 price tag does look sweet though.

 

[Guest]

I would imagine that this was a work computer, with everything logged, and Print Screen would be riskier than a camera phone.

I think they should still knock off another $30. A $170 price range is more appropriate IMO.

 

[ssalim]

They should include wiifit and balance board for $199. That'd be nice.

 

[Magnumload]

Good price.

Still won't buy it. I don't see paying $200 for a gamecube wrapped in a new look with fancy motion controllers.

 

[Guest]

Hmmm a gamecube w/ a waggle wand for $200...nah $99 thank you very much.

The Wii currently costs $280 in Canada, instead of $250, while the PS3 and 360 maintain there American pricing. I don't know if that 360 rebate applies here, but if it does it means I can get a 360 for $30 less than a Wii. Seeing as how that's absolutely ridiculous, the price drop is long overdue.

Haha just saw this at work, love the writing in bold.

 

[anamaniac]

I only want the Wii for Zelda...
Anyone have any other possible reasons to buy a Wii?
