"In recent months, much has been talking about the final price could be the new home console from Nintendo, called Wii U. This time the Spanish online store Xtralife, is ahead of any official announcement by Nintendo, setting a price of € 399.99 on your website. The truth is that since we have had Xtralife occasional leakage , by so there is no small feat. You can also see an indicative date of release (subject to change) November 22, 2012.

At the moment we must be aware that something is not official and we know their truth until the next E3, when Nintendo will give all information about your new console. Until then we can be sure that U Wii, a console will not be cheap."

Intresting.

That translation started out okay, then went downhill fast.

If they charge 400 euro, it better be worth it.

A little over $500 isn't going to stop me from buying it.

400 Euros sounds great. Better than the $599 AUS here in Australia at EB Games.

Europeans wish.
400 euro = 400 US Dollars, to companies.

Yeah I saw the $500 price as a $300 Wii U + 4 games I will regret buying or not play much.

I dont even think this is reliable. This is because I think I remember Nintendo (Iwatta) saying that they arent even sure of a good launch date. So now at this point no one really knows when it will launch not to mention the price. The only thing that we know is that it will cost more than what the Wii did at launch.

On second thought, make that 2 or 3 games. Pikmin and Arkham City (assuming it's a launch title) are must have though.

It's just a placeholder.

If it's 400$ it should have kickass hardware though. Like, really effing good specs. It would be the X360 of nextgen.

I'd rather believe the $300 rumour, because it seems more likely to what Nintendo would do. If they want mainstream audiences to buy it too, they better not go a single dollar above 350.
