It would be really stupid if the Wii's price is what's stopping HD-only gamers from buying it.

its stopping me! id buy the wii if its 100$. its 350 in my country.

It's almost as much where I live come to think of it.


thats why i cant have two consoles.  the ps3 and 360 are at the price they launched at. but the wii is 100 dollars more expensive then launch price. also games here range from 70 till 100$. and games never get price cuts.

and macs are 3k here!

It;s the exact thing over here man. We Europeans always get the shaft when it comes to pricing.

I think most price difference come from the fact that in almost every country except the US prices include taxes already. VAT or otherwise. In the US most states have a sales tax, but it varies so it is not inlcuded in price. If you really feel your games are priced to high, vote to lower taxes in your country. You get the benifits of more government services but you have to pay for them still. bSorry sometime the amricans get things so cheap  gets to me. Its really not the case when you look at what is being paid for sometimes.

with vat a game should be 70$ a ps3 and 360 should be about 350, and a wii should be about 230 but theyr not.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good
