Pixel Art can be fun.
| Roma said: well good for them It is not their fault they know how to make stuff cheap and at very high quality at the same time. Stuff that don’t break after a year so you do not have to buy another one the next year like some other companies make you do ;) |
That's so true. My Wii is the only console out of the 3 which hasn't broke. The same goes for the DS too but my PSP has died twice.
Lets read the first paragraph and skip the last two. Who needs 2/3rds of the article to make a sound argument?
Sig thanks to Saber! :D
Not surprised, the price of Wii is 199$/€.
They're that good in making business. If only companies here could take note of that.
Damn, Nintendo is going to make fuck load of money on this one.

| RolStoppable said: I already knew that Nintendo's profit margin is the one thing the most responsible for the 3DS's high price. That became clear from Iwata's comment that they charge $250, because they think that that is what they can sell it for. |
You also hate Nintendo, right? This is the reason I hate Nintendo even more. I hate their arrogant behavior. I miss the days when Nintendo was a humble company, when their consoles were being sold at low prices, when they cared about their customers instead of the money. I miss those GameCube days, DS wasn't so bad, I still like the price, personally I think it was priced well. Now it's all an arrogant company. Now, when wii existed, I started to dislike Nintendo, it started to became all about money and now this, 3DS. To me, Nintendo it's completely dead now.
At least they have the flexibility to cut the price if needed.
This thing dropping to DSlite price of $129 will EXPLODE!

Since the DSi retailed for £150 and you can get the 3DS for around £187 I see no problem here. Plus I heard that Tesco are doing it for £175 at midnight, I'm not sure on that though. |
It appears as though the price stays the same when bought with a single game as well. A few people claim this deal is only available to the first 150 customers, though I can't confirm that. Either way though it's a win for early adopters even if they don't go to the Tesco midnight launch, other retailers are certain to price match, they've been doing it since pre-orders opened :P
It's tempting to say the least, but alas, I must hold off, for now.
How technical is your game?
