Wii console package

[Jester]

Just read on another forum the Wii package will cost $249 and will contain:

Virtual Consoler
3d Controller
ALWAYS online (console is always online, even when OFF)
Built in speaker on the controller

Obviously this needs to be taken with a pinch of salt, especially with all the E3 rumours circulating.

Im Sold...I think?

I dont understand the 'always online' feature?

Like the idea of a built-in controller speaker.. would make for nice weapon reloading sound effects

I Will be buying the Nintendo Wii its got me really excited and i hope its priced at $199.99 that wouldbe a killer price for Nintendo's Wii because i am not going over $250.00 for a new console the PS3 is priced way over my budget::tard:

Basically if the Nintendo Wii is $200, That means the 60 GB PS3 will be tripple the price and that is so crazy!

not that we can actually do anything about it, but i think it would be great if it was bundled with a couple good games for the emulator, its been too long since a system actually came with something playable out of the box

also i think either price would be fine(though hoping for the $200), especially since both are less than the PS2's debut price

 

[The S-Word]

this is the only definite purchase for me so far..

well i always end up with all systems so this is just a definite first purchase :lol:

 

[ebittner]

That is not a bad price at all when you think about what the 360 is going for and what the PS3 is going to go for.

 

[Evil Panda]

I would definitely get the Wii, not only 'cause of the price but the amazing features it has over the PS3 or Xbox 360... I mean, Nintendo pretty much owned them by a longshot.

$250 and is not bad at all, of course I'd rather buy it for $199. Look for the new Duck Hunt to come with the Wii.

difference

what is the difference between the 3d controller and the virtual controller?

what is the difference between the 3d controller and the virtual controller?

Virtual Controller? I think you mean Virtual Console, the Wii's retro game download service. Although there is a controller for the old games (and Gamecube games), but I don't know what it's called yet.

3D

is the 3D one the wireless one?

is the 3D one the wireless one?

The Wii Remote? The only wireless one I can think of is the Wiimote. The other is the classic controller for the Virtual console
