EA believes the Wii will retail for 170$ – Cross Your Fingers!

While speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, EA’s very own David Gardner spilled some juicy beans upon the journalist’s laps. He believes that the Wii will retail in the US for 170$. Many may be thinking to themselves – I don’t think he believes this, or more likely – That’s an odd number! This is what the VP and COO of EA’s worldwide studios said in the interview – “I’ve heard in Japan that the price is about $170, but I don’t know if the price has been set in Europe yet.” He also believes that Nintendo’s marketing strategy is perfect and will definitely work in favor of them. Still going strong on the 2nd console approach, this has fueled his opinion and many other Nintendo fans.  

If you are a person like me – anxiously awaiting the launch date (which has yet to be reveleaed), then you will definetly cheer at this opinion from David Gardner. He speculated a price of 170$ which would allow us to purchase many games along with the console. If you are rich enough, you could even purchase all 27 launch titles with the console! With the Wii’s launchup with games going so strong and the price seeming to be very low, this will be one of the most successful console launches if everything goes as it has been speculated to!
