It seems that Amazon UK already has the price cuts in effect. Ignoring promotions, according to Amazon, RRP prices are:

200 £ for the Arcade (~260 €, could even be 250 € in Eurozone depending on exchange rate decisions, meaning the same as Wii's price)

250 £ for the Premium (~330 €)

280 £ for the Elite (~365 €)

For comparison, PS3's list price is 300 £ (for the only available model, the 40 GB one). This means that every 360 model is cheaper than the PS3. Wii's is 180 £.

 

Looks like the Xbox 360 in the UK is going to maintain a higher price than the rest of Europe. It's funny how the country thats most loyal to the console out of the entire continent is the one Microsoft screws.

 

 um, right....by any chance, is the wii more expensive in the uk? how about the ps3? whats with food? beer? rent?

do you have any idea what the cost of living is in the uk compared to mainland europe? do you think they might earn a bit more on the island?

many questions for such a simple statement....
