    I think big N-ten had to put the Wii at a profitable price to bank in hey lets face it Sony will be bankin money with 600 dollar consoles and Micro is bankin in 400 off the 360 so I can see why they asked for a little more and really they probably could have charged 300 for the Wii , if they wanted to , they need a nice profit comin to compete.

    hey dazila, true i've had a ps2 and xbox and have never watched a dvd on either of them so yes that doesn't matter about not having a dvd player in it. Lets not sit here and say $250 is pocket change to everyone, it wouldn't break my bank but its still more than i'd like to pay. Plus the games, i highly doubt that stupid Wii sports is worth $50 so anyone arguing that its a great throw in is an idiot. the baseball game is only homerun derby, and unless 2 or 3 friends have wiimotes i doubt any of those sports games will have a lasting appeal and i doubt they have a season or some mode like that. It would be nice is 2k didn't own the rights to make baseball games with the mlbpa because their baseball games suck, and baseball games could be awesome for the Wii and that would probaly be the thing that would bring me to get one, that and being able to download the old games free, after someone learns how to hack them. Another Mario baseball game with more characters or a simpsons baseball game would be awesome, or if they do get GTA like i see them might on ign.

    Playing that console on a small tv under 68cm will suck as you need to move around but im alright my 108cm plasma is good enough and you need to have room like with the eyetoy at least 1m on back right left and 1 - 2m infront of you

    Media centre, builtin motion sensor and tv motion sensor. Extremly small and light weight console, old n64 controler ports avalible. Built in sim's style game with a free full game and wirless motion controler.

    FREE ONLINE PLAY. 250 usd is cheap not to mention the games are cheap to.

    Have you any idea how much a blueray ps3 game will be lol.

    Plus with xbox and ps u gotta pay to play online.

    Whats an extra 50usd id spend more than that in a week on smokes
