I think people will look at the price, then look at the Wii's price. Then they'll pick the Wii.

Unless it is $100 and comes with a cool game, there is no way I'm buying this.  You can get several consoles for this amount or less.  Craziness.

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Too steep - must be cheaper or this will fail, that really is too much, considering old arcade units are 200$

Technically, it wouldn't even be $50 more, as you HAVE to buy a game to make use of Kinect (unless you want to use it solely for dashboard navigation, which no one will).  So that brings the total to $200.  At least, with the Wii you get a second game.  Well, in America, anyway.

i don't think pricing is a problem with Microsoft, they just need to market it , and people will buy it.

Does this actually have any news content, other than a STILL unofficial price?


I think its moving toward a more conclusive pricing. Why would walmart be giving away giftcards and a game in a bundle theyre doing internally without knowing the final price of a product?

Thats whats curious about this, imo. 

Unless this is th emost brilliant marketing strategy ever and MSFT is telling these companies to expect $150 then they come out at $99 or something close to launch to surprise us all.

depending on Microsoft's formal announcement," a Walmart representative told IGN. 

 

that is the line that still makes all of this useless. they're also stating they have no price and this is a placeholder unti they get one. So just like all other retailers this is just speculation, back to waiting for an actual anouncement on price.
