The Nintendo Wii - $225?

Lemme see... 225 for an awesome motion sensitive nintendo system, or 600 for a ripoff PS3... Well, that just makes it a tossup between Wii and 360

Which you probably couldn't leak if you found out before the announcement at TGS because you could risk losing your job, right?

Once it's announced, I can spill the beans. There's not TOO much stuff (viturally nothing really) that I know ahead of time before it's announced.

In our info, we still have the price listed as a "n/a" and the release is estimated for 4th quarter (oct, nov, dec). If I was a betting man, I'd guess the system would be released around Nov. Right in time for that Xmas rush.

EDIT- Okay, I just got info that the cost of the system will not exceede $250. And the plan is to ship 6 million units world wide at launch.

Yeah that's standard. Since you probably signed some non-disclosure agreement when you started working there spilling the beans puts your job at risk. The $250 thing is pretty much what most people know. They said at E3 they will announce the price at TGS.

I guess....if you don't like good games. ;)

But if no one wants to pay the 6 big ones for a PS3, its really no comparison. The 360 has been out nearly a year and people aren't even really talking about it. The Wii is the only true option if you don't want a PS3.

225 for the system I'll probably get it anyway, but I'll eventually buy the PS3 once GOOD games come out for it in year 2 or 3.
