#395 Wii U Price Discussion

Posted by Epic Kirby on 06 January 2011 - 03:41 PM

I know we know very little about the Wii 2 so its very hard (and a bit pointless) to guess on price but it's still worth thinking about. Nintendo always tries to give a premium experience at the lowest price possible, but with the talks of the 3DS costing $250 the Wii 2 will probably me more expensive than that.

PS3 and 360 are still way more expensive than Wii, and the PSP is still more expensive than. But they offer other things. In a world of economic crashes, cuts, deficits, national debts people might decide to fit everything they need into one system. For example, the PS3 offers the motion controlling of the Wii, the graphics of the 360 and a Blu Ray player. This negates the need to buy a Blu Ray player separately, a Wii and 360. Saving on costs.

There was another good discussion on the forums about whether the Wii 2 will be Blu Ray compatible. I hope so because I don't think Nintendo can justify a high price on the notion of great gameplay and games alone.

So?

-Do you think the Wii 2 will be expensive?
-Is there any price you would not go over?
-Do Nintendo's next consoles have to be more media friendly to justify prices?
