Biggest gaming related bombshell of 2009: Wii price reduced from $250 to $200 as of September 27, 2009 in North America.

Nintendo seeing Wii sales cooling off at $250 price tag unleashes IMO biggest bombshell of 2009 with $50 price cut of its own. 2009 only year where the three systems all had price cuts. 2009 was Wii's first price cut ever.
