Every console maker that I can remember has always tried to eliminate rumors about price cuts in whatever way they can; claiming that there may never be a price cut is about as effective as an argument as I can think of.
Now, one reason I could see why Nintendo might actually mean this (and it is not just "Rumor Defence") would be inflation. In most western countries, inflation is running very high right now with some ways of measuring it estimating it at (up to) 12%; if this continues the Wii will not need to cut its price because everything will get so expensive that the Wii will look more and more affordable.
