Well then there ya go.

DAMMIT!!!

If the US is getting it first, and Japan on 2nd December, ...that means that Europe is being neglected again and won' t get it until mid-December at the earliest.

Everything else sounds awesome though. I just don' t understand why they' re tackling Sony head on - it doesn' t make sense.

Shit, the next months are going to be a looooooooong wait. I wanted the Wii sooner.
The US gets Wii sports bundled but the rest... don' t?
The US gets it first and Europe gets it... not at all?
I was hoping NES games would be cheaper. $5 each is a little too much. I' d prefer if you could buy a collection of NES games, maybe four or five, for like $10.
Maybe I' ll spend my money on some PSP and PC games and hope there' s something left when it' s Wii-day.

$250?...so how much is that gonna be in pounds when it crosses the seas...

I' ll hold you to that. I dunno why but kinda expected them to dip below 250 not bag on the money.

Well by current exchange rates $250 is £132, but since we get everything at a premium, it' ll probably be closer to £179.

Games in the US will cost $50, so here they' ll cost £40.

December can' t come soon enough!

I think I' m going to freeze myself and sleep until december.

Don' t worry i' ll wake you up come december...2010..

i think europe will get the wii at 250 euro , they always make thoser lame greedy convertions dollar = euro.

so it will release after ps3, not like they said, and why nintendo said it' ll be cheaper than 250$ , just to make it a dollar less, that' s mean .

i just want this war to start soon so we can all enjoy the good games and wee each console what is truly capable of.

I know 1 dollar less nintendo is so generous. Also what i' m wondering is isn' t developing for the wii slightly if not on par or in the arena of current gen games then why the $50 tag if you' re sole purpose is ' ' to bring gaming to the masses' ' ... no wonder every other dev are announcing support...$

Current gen titles do cost $50. Next-gen games cost $60. Videogames aren' t for the poor!

Trust me I can afford the games I buy and as gaming isn' t for the poor who are nintendo targeting in ' ' the masses' ' then?.

Playstation and Playstation 2 both have an install base of over 100 million each. That' s " the masses" . Nintendo want to target the same audience they have with DS, both hardcore and casual gamers and non-gamers. DS games go for £30 here and Wii games will cost £40. Xbox and PS2 games retail for £39.99 new, so why expect Wii games to be cheaper, especially if they' re technically superior?!

At least they aren' t charging £50 like 360 games go for, and if you order them online you' ll probably be able to pick Wii games up for £29.99 anyway.

shit 250$ would mean 250 Euros for us... that' s not extremely cheap , but it' s ...ok I guess.

That' s £168.

Like i said, i expect it to be about £179 when it' s released here and nything lower than £200 is cheap. The PSP cost' s £179 here so nintendo' s new console retailing for that price is fine by me. I just need to know the entire launch lineup now.

I hope we' ll get Wii Sports in the bundle like those US bastards.

Damn I don' t want to wait till december or hell , maybe even january.Europe sux :(

Box art...

now that' s fuckin terrible :(

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Constructive... not really. Creative... definately not, but it was just too good of a situation to pass up. That' s great for stupid Americans like me.
I wonder when retailers are going to start taking pre-orders?
