Nintendo: Wii Will Not Cut Price

[Demon_Skeith]

In spite of slashes from the two other main consoles, Nintendo wants us all to know that they have no intention of cutting the price of the stupidly popular Nintendo Wii.

They'd rather continue getting rich:

"We'll stay at $249 for the foreseeable future. We are still selling everything we can make," Nintendo's George Harrison said. "We think we're in a great position. Both our competitors took price reductions and it hasn't stalled our momentum at all."

As far as the shortage goes: "The goal is to try to have reasonably steady production over the course of the year. Suppliers don't want to shut down and do nothing in the early part of year," Harrison said.

Yeah, a bit early for those folks to do anything about the price of the Wii console, but I wish they can cut the price so that I can afford it.

I wish they would sell the other colors. I'm going to get another Wii when they release the other colors.

I wish they cut the price to atleast 200 or 225. I don't like white electronics they get dirty too easily.
