Japanese console maker Nintendo has announced that its next-generation gaming console, the Nintendo Wii, will start at US$250 or less in the United States, or 25,000 yen or less in Japan – cutting its rivals in some cases by half.


Nintendo hopes to sell at least six million Wiis globally by March next year. The console is due out at the end of this year, competing directly with the more-expensive PlayStation 3, which will debut in November.


The Nintendo Wii is key to the company’s survival, as they just posted a 19 percent slide in quarterly profits and made profit warnings regarding the fiscal year.

for 250...i think i might get one, just for Zelda tho when it comes out and Mario. I hope they come outwith different controllers too, cause those remotes are just for fags.

i still think its a pathetic attempt at a next gen console.its just a gamecube with some tweaks.matter a fact,at E3,those wii demos they were playing were actually run on gamecubes,and not the wii.anyways the specs are a joke,and so is the wiimote(sounds just like when a fag tries to say remote).
