Wii to be priced under $200?

Krish May 12 2006

Vice president of Marketing for Sega, one of the key game publishers for Nintendo consoles says Wii will be on sale for less than $200. Well, Sony and Microsoft may put Nintendo much behind in the videogame console market, but Nintendo certainly has developed a strong base of ardent fans.

In the E3 event at the Kodak Theatre during the unveiling (?) of its Wii console it has not mentioned anything concrete about the console, the price or when it will be shipped etc, but still crowd simply keep cheering Nintendo executives throughout the presentation.

Pricing low, however, some feel, will make it less credible in the console market. But isn't Nintendo been using quality hardware into its systems for long? I mean, look at GameCube, this is certainly built on established hardware, isn't it?

Lot of speculation going on for long. Its now time they should come out with something concrete.
