To the first question, the Wii costs approximately $50 less in Japan and has been since launch. The only difference is that it doesn't have Wii Sports in it. You do the math. I'm not sure how things got affected since the recent price drop though.

I don't know that MS hasn't added $5 to the purchase of the hard drives. However, it would be unlikely since the price of the hard drives are at very desirable price points and don't have an odd $5 that seems merely tacked on. My point is that if Hexic HD was not packaged with a hard drive, would that drop the price of the Xbox 360 Pro, Elite and the standalone hard drives the applicable $5(or whatever price)? Doubtful. That is why I believe it's a freebie. However, if the Wii did not have Wii Sports packaged in, I fully believe it would have retailed for $199 at launch.

 

Different region pricing is a very flawed explaination.  Using that logic Americans must be getting the game free since Euro people with Wii/Wii Sports were paying more.

Don't Europeans pay more for everything?
