Price Drops In Near Future?

[CantGetAWii]

I was surprised that it hasn't gone down yet, even by $50 or so. But demand still has been high, and even though it appears to be slowing I think it will continue with the titles being released this year.

Maybe next year we will see a solid price drop?

PS3 is rumored to price drop soon,

That "rumor" has been around for almost a year. Not likley to happen.

Doubt there'll be any price drops in the near future, demand is still very, very high.
As for great multi and single-player games, you can't go wrong with Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

WRT demand - I believe that supply has finally caught up. Newegg has now unbundled the console and they are in stock at local (Chicago 'burbs) Gamestops and available online from Toys-R-Us. OTOH, Wal-Mart lists no online stock and has not put them back in stores. I just checked ebay and there is a Wii/Wii Fit bundle bid up to a couple dollars over retail. It will be interesting to see where it finishes. ...wait for it, wait for it... Bidding finished at $351 - $12 over retail. That tells me that the supply of Wii consoles (and Wii Fit) is otherwise meeting demand.

As far as games, you'll need an extra controller anyway so be sure to get the Wii Play game bundled with an extra controller. The games are pretty simple but when friends come over and you just want to have a laugh, they return a lot of laughs for a little investment in time and skill. (Cow racing! )

I'll probably pickup a Wii and Wii Play for the time being on the weekend.

Need time to think of a game to get.
