The cheapest price we have available at the moment is 4,500 SEK (650 USD), but the great majority has it around 5,000 SEK (723 USD).

For comparison, our cheapest 3DS deal is $202 and $173 for Wii.

Vi kan nog lungt räkna med minst en 1000-1500 minskning av det priset :)

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Ugh. Another foreign language thread

Honestly? The price will be no more than £230/$299 I'd expect, but I reckon closer to £210/$249.

(Note- I mean no offence by that top line. It's just that it's frustrating not understanding the comments...)

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

We know from Nintendo's previous statements that it will cost more than the Wii did, but that the price is also supposed to be very reasonable. So 299 US DOLLARZ sounds right to me. Anything more than that would be crazy.

However, at the moment Amazon has NSMBU, Ninja Gaiden III, and Nintendo Land all listed at $99.99. So all bets are off!

I'm hoping around there, but considering it comes with a Tablet controller? That could push it to $349 USD.

How much was the Wii at launch? It was $399 in the land down under. :D
