So walmart estimating the Wii U price, and google giving you ads from the walmart website based on your recent searches about the Wii U is shocking or something?

^That was probably an opinion, chill.

If it's powerful, that'll be a great price. Hopefully I'll have enough money to get two major games and a downloadable title.

Got that image from GoNintendo.
I guess I have to put this GoNintendo link instead of "Click the image for source" type of link.

... I know that.
But look at what they searched, Google bolds the words you search in the results.
Wii U is bolded.

If this is the price, I would be happy to buy that.

I wonder also, if Wal-Mart is just guessing the price.

Could they have taken it down?

Nah.
Wal Mart doesn't know yet. C'mon.

Ha! I love how there's an option to write a review there... Someone should write one now, as if they've had one for a while.

I guess this fits here, IGN done wrote an article about the price yesterday.
http://ie.wii.ign.co.../1224064p1.html

Wii U may well be worth $300 and lots more. The machine's essential unique selling point is the touch-screen controllerwhich comes jammed with groovy technical gizmos, including accelerometer, gyroscope, camera and Near Field Communication (the thing that allows for augmented reality gaming). Try buying a six-inch touch-screen anything for $300 right now, and you'll wind up with some iffy iPad knock-off.

As adroit from neogaf says, NFC has nothing to do with Augmenting Reality.

We miss Matt and Craig.

How did they mess that up? I thought IGN also covered phones and I thought they would have known what
NFC does. Pretty much every kid in London has experienced a form of NFC (its not the same thing but the same principles of using RFID cards) when travelling on the bus.

I think they thought it counted that the rabbit got done put into rayman legends by putting a figure on the screen.
That's not augmenting reality, that's virtualising a figure.

AR is when you take something in a game and place it into reality(on screen usually, lawl).
