Think the Wiimote + Nunchuck are a bit.. Pricey?

[MyGunJammed]

It is definitely overpriced, but I guess that is where Nintendo plans to make some $$$. I don’t think that I’ve had to pay anywhere near $60 for an extra controller for any other system.

I don't mind that the controllers are a tad pricey. Big deal, we have to pay $60 four times. Xbox360 and PS3 owners have to pay that much for every single game they want.

Well the controller is the meat of the Wii!!!
I mean you wouldn't expect them to keep the price 20 dollars

Kind in mind that the Australian price for most games is $100 and the price for the Wiimote-Nunchuk Set is $100.

by the way why hasn't anyone mentioned the fact that all the games will most likely be 10 bucks less than any other systems and some even 20 less

Good point^

I just looked at ebgames and Halo 3 is taking preorders and there is an "Expert" edition, which includes some behind the scenes footage and a Master Chief helmet and it's $100!! Hate to say it, but I actually may try to buy that; I am that nerdy, sometimes.

It's the Legendary Edition and it's going to be awesome haha, but I think that the prices for the wiimotes really isn't that bad for what it is, The 360 controllers (wireless) are $50 and they don't even have motion control so yeah it's justified

Oops, I meant Legendary. I know, I can't wait, but the release date says November 2007!? I thought they were going to try to release it sometime in January when Vista (supposedly) will debut? I almost want to get two Legendary editions of Halo 3, one for me and one to sell on eBay in like 5 years.
