Reggie Fils-Anime said at E3 "the wii will give you more fun for less money" so it might be quite a good prediction

I remember when the 64 came out the standard prices for the games were usually between $70 and $100 and the cheapest games (2nd hand) were $40. When the SNES came out the games were usually > $100.

If these companies keep making more games at an increasing rate pr year then I bet the price will go down to $0 lol

Just kiddin mate - If the wii games are $50 at first then I'm happy enuf with the price. Over time the prices will decrease to $40 average or lower (this is a predicition)

Because the prices of the N64 games were in the $70 - $100 price range (as the cartridges that came with them charged $25 each in comparision to $.10 for a CD that was used in PS games) I couldn't buy a game pr month usually got them once or twice a yr since i was on pocket money and the games often took a long time to fully finish.

Arcadium's correct, the point of not putting in all that shmancy fancy hardware into their console like Sony and Mircrosoft did was so that it would blow away their competitor's prices since it made the wii less expensive, why would they make their games more expensive? I'm thinkin $50-$60 is gonna be the average price.

I think that is a prediction but maybe all the games of the wii are going to be like $40-60 dollars.
And if that is false maybe is that the game is going to cost aprox. $50.

In the video of the conference before E3, one of the guys said that first party games should be no more than 50 dollars. That means SSBB will be 50 dollars since its a first party game, but a thrid party game like Red Steel or Sonic could end up being more than 50 dollars. Sorry I don't have the link to the video.
