Rumor: Nintendo Wii to get a price cut

Recent monthly sales figures have shown Wii to be slowing down while its competitors’ offerings are gaining some ground, thanks to the competitive price cuts. Now a Toys R Us flier has surfaced claiming that Nintendo is ready to drop the price to an attractive $199. The price cut according to the flier, is expected to come in the week of the 27th and will also include Wii Sports with the console. The price is obviously not confirmed but if it happens and coupled with some good games lined up for Wii this holiday season, they can again get back into the game.
