come on, his point was the wii is overpriced, and its thats why nintendo its getting those huge profits from.
and niche because of the control i guess.

and the #1 reason i won't support nintendo for a long time until they drop out the price.

 

No, actually an easily identified problem with the Wii is that it is underpriced.  After 1.5 years it still outsells on a weekly basis, leaving no stock for "impulse buyers".

Whether a product is overpriced or not isn't a  factor of what it cost, but a factor of how much people are willing to pay for it.

 

Don't "support Nintendo" or any company, buy the product you want.
