the Wii is an epidemic.

Around the Network

The real key to this press release is where Nintendo confirms that the Wii is now the #1 current gen console in Australia.

This lines up almost exactly with Ioi's figures.

Boo. Two weeks after Europe release :(

JB will almost certainly have it for $80. $99 is a real rip-off - especially with the dollar at such highs.

Still... its Mario Kart. Its one of the few games I wouldn't hesitate to pay $99 for. Crappy DS games can cost as much as $70 :(

Sadly some retailers have even charged $79.95 for some DS games, FFIII was one that comes to mind at BIG W.

I'll be getting it maybe when the price is right

probably can find it $70 or $80 from JB at launch

meh, still to expensive. My price range is about 50 bucks or bellow



$99.95, I'll take it. JB will probably announce a slightly lower price than that before its release. Oh, and I want the Wii wheel. I want two. Peripherals ahoy!



We are finally starting to build up a decent amount of good games now, seeming we lag so much behind Japan and US for getting games on time.

Looks like Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn on the 10th and Mario Kart Wii on 24th should keep me busy through April/May :).
