pffft. Nintendo never cuts the price of their games. Really annoying actually and one of the reasons I like the PS3 as I can count on significant discounts a couple of months later. I just bought BatmanAA for $20 off of Ebay due to its lower retail pricing. Twilight Princess, a MUCH older game, still costs ~$30 on ebay.

The only thing you are right here is the part where you said nintendo don't cut price, yes they don't, they release player choices instead.

It's probable that nintendo don't release a Player Choice this year, but we will have to wait.

And your example is wrong because Batman AA is a third party game, and third party wii games have price cuts.

ok, well, GOW3 has already dropped almost $15 new and ZeldaTP is still full price new in retailers. Is that a better example?

Also, I have yet to see 'players choice' for wii, where as PS3's greatest hits comes out fairly quickly.

However, as noted elsewhere, this might have more to do with the fact that PS360 games start out $10 higher and thus make more revenue upfront with the majority of sales happen.
