Sony, on the other hand...]]>Apr 9th 2009 6:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/Apr 9th 2009 6:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/
CPU/MB combo = $50 (cheap .. but it will perf better than Wii)
power supply + case = $25 (yes, if you look u can find it at decent quality level too)
40 GB HDD = $25
2 GB RAM = $15
GeForce 9400 GT 512MB DDR2 = $50 (far better graphics than Wii and has HD etc.)

$15 = $8 keyboard + $7 mouse


OS? Linux or Solaris, free.

Total = $175

Clearly Nintendo manufacturing is making mad profits on the Wii.

how in the hell did MS screw up the vastly superior 360? what are you some sort of moron... oooo red ring of death, postal replacement.. big deal... now what else did MS screw you over with??

The Wii is a novelty toy, and like most novelty toys everyone rushes out to buy em cause when they played them round their mates house when drunk at some party it was great fun, then you buy one and have a party and everyone has a laugh bowling or whatnot, then you goto play something on it the following day that isnt a party game and you realise that the graphics suck, the games are the same shit nintendo have been producing for years and the little gay box gets shoved into a cupboard never to be used again cause the next time you throw a party no one can be arsed playing it and prefers to instead get wasted..

But fair play to them, they innovated and took a risk with the controller, lets hope they use the massive amount of cash there making on that shitbox to actually make a decent console for gamers next time instead of old people and 9y.o. kids]]>Apr 10th 2009 5:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/Apr 10th 2009 9:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/Apr 10th 2009 12:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/Seriously, why does everyone think that when a company makes a console that it HAS to be directed at the hardcore market. Guess what guys, you don't make up the vast majority of the population. They can make way more money selling a console to the rest of the world, not just the limited population of hard core gamers.]]>Apr 10th 2009 10:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/09/nintendo-president-squashes-talk-of-wii-price-cuts/
business is business. if you actually like gaming, buy a 360.]]>Apr 10th 2009 1:35PM
