Wii price revealed- kinda!

[Lozzoling]

Nintendo Europe OFFICIALLY said it'd be under £180 certainly

Let me give you a scenario...

You get NBA Live 2006 for Xbox360 and the gameplay is excellent, the graphics are incredibly lifelike and you love the game because it fills all expectations.
You get NBA Live 2006 for Wii and the gameplay is excellent, the graphics though look like they've been coloured in by my little cousin and you don't like the game because of the incredibly bad graphics.

Which one would you go for?

Wii because you'd have to be an idiot to even consider NBA Live 2006

Anyway all PS3 is doing is refining graphics and making banana shaped controllers, xbox 360 is bareable but the games that are released aren't excactly expanding the genres.

GAME said the price would be around £150
im gettin a ps3 but i might also get a wii as the price is really cheap and the controller seems kinda good.

I might be foiled into buying a Wii, when is the release date?

And release date games?

Nintendo hasnt confirmed a relased date of asof now but they are planning on announcing a date in September. They will also announce the official price in September. The games have been scheduled to release as early as October 26th, so many speculate that the Wii could actually be relased earlier than expected.

as the Wii is not out yet you cant say that about the graphics. Yes they wont reach the quality of PS3 or Xbox360 but the gameplay will be different and better. Say if NBA Live 2006 was for the Wii you wud have more interaction but less graphics but for xbox360 its better graphics but just pressing buttons. The Wii's gameplay is proberly going to be the best of the 3 as of the controller and jsut as its graphics are less doesnt mean there rubbish ^^

Anyway hope games r cheap as well ^^

Lol I bet the majority of wii/nintendo supporters whould change there mind
on which next gen console they will purchase if the price was any differant.

For example i have a friend who only buys the cheaper of consoles since
hes afraid to dish out an extra £100 for a better in my opinion alternative
due to the fact he aint got cash on the other hand another mate of mine
who is fairly well off buys them all and he told me when it comes to spending
that bit extra you see where your most profitable investment is.

In my opinion add all these extra features is just another way of covering
up the major faults in "wii".

I preferre what the ps3 will have too offer and will buy it no questions asked
but i will also buy the wii for one reason twilight princess and the follow up to
the classic games other wise the console it self is really nothing.

thanks com

in my opinion one of the major factors is the dvd player

ironicly, all fthe consoles which can play dvds seem to be the most popular, take the gamecube for example

i have seen the gamecube sell for as low as 29.99
with the xbox and ps2 still sell for 99.99 in most stores

The price is very crucial to most buyers. I was planning on spending at elast $300 on the Wii in the first place, including a game or two.

So far, no faults have happened to the development of the Wii. It's been pretty smooth sailing and haven't encountered any issues that may degrade the performance of the console. However, the Playstation 3 has faced some major downgrades both visable and through specs. For one, the controller will have the rumble disabled. The specs also changed on the console from E3 2005 which have caused many fans to step back from buying a PS3. (One of these was when Sony announced they would be selling two packages and not just 1 as promised, and the least expensive has many features disabled.)

Here's a video of the game i'm getting with BRILLIANT graphics! It just proves that nintendo are improving graphics greatly, and this isn't even good quality compared to most videos =]
