Wii Question

Does anyone know what the actual MSRP for the Wii is these days? I'm looking at buying one for my cousin for Christmas, but it appears as though Amazon is currently either out of stock of standalone Wiis, or they only sell those annoying bundles that no one wants.

I saw that Sam's Club has standalone Wiis in an odd blue color for $100 -- is that the new MSRP for the Wii?

The MSRP is 150 bucks, I believe Wal-mart and Sam Club's has the 100 dollar Blue Wii, but only two places carrying them.. and thought was only for Black Fri

Thanks BaB. That is weird... it looks like the $100 Wii is still available at Sam's Club (maybe it's an error though).

I maybe wrong but I remember hearing something about some new Wii which is cheaper but doesn't have the backwards compatibility feature. You may want to research that before deciding which one to get.

The new blue one is like that. And there's a white one which comes with Sports and Party (at least here in the EU).

Flipping through some ads, seems like best Buy has it for 140 with New Super Mario Bros Wii/Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack and either Flingsmash or Kirby's Epic Yarn for free.

Target has it for 130 with Just Dance 3.

It retails brand new at Gamestop for 129.99. However we only have those annoying bundles right now which are 139.99 and 149.99 (mario kart bundle)

Blue wii is cool though, and I assume sam's club probably does have them for 100.
