It was inevitable, wasn’t it? Earlier today during a conference call, the Wii’s price drop was apparently confirmed. As was expected, the new price of the console will be dropped to $199 on Sunday, September 27th. Because of the Walmart, Toys R Us, Target, and Best Buy ad listings, a widespread cut is probable. Nintendo has not made an official announcement yet, but it looks like all of the rumors can finally be put to rest.
Walmart, Toys R Us, Target, and now Best Buy are saying that there will be a Wii price drop in just a matter of weeks. I’m still going to remain on the rumor, but this is looking more official as the days go by.
Thanks to Thomas for the news tip!
Thanks to NintenDaan for the news tip!
We’ll have to see if this boxart sticks, as Nintendo has a few months to change it. As far as the Walmart deal goes, you can obtain a $10 eGift Card with the game.
