can't say for sure, but if they are staying at $50 in the us then i imagine it would stay the same in britain, $50 is what 95% of games have released at for gc

I wouldn't mind if they stick with 50 USD in Britain (I live here too btw), 'cause that's only roughly about 26.50 pounds.

Actually I would like 45$ USD. 50 just seems a little too much, but the amount of time I play, I really don't care.

$50 US is like $70 AUS, that's quite cheap for a new release game of a new console. Normally new release games in Australia can be up to $100-110.

Don't forget all games cost more in Europe.
With the added extra cost publishers like to add, I would guess a new Wii game might cost anywhere from £35-£45 (difficult to say more precisely at the moment).

Yeah, I think my earlier comment may have been unclear.

What I meant was $50 has been the going rate for new games for the past 5-6 years now in the US. If the wii games are coming here for $50, then I was saying you could prolly expect them to stay the same price as new games have been recetly wherever you live.

Now that's just silly.

At least the Wii will be slightly cheaper than the GC games and a lot cheaper than the overpriced N64 games were.

For the Wii are going to be around $55-$60 which is a lot of money when you want to get a lot of games.

I think the games for Wii are going to be around the same price as the games for the current generation games, around $59.99.

Well i guessi have to say if they are going to make money its on the games, think about it. They are selling the system so cheap to lock in new users... granted the gfx and specs are not as good as the $500 systems, but everyone is going to buy one its 200$! then they have to buy 60$ games which is high for the us, therefore if nintendo was goingt o stick with their cheap pricing they should really make the games 40, because then everyone would buy tons of games for their wii... i dunno just my thoughts.
