Official Price

relative is a relative word. that means nothing.

im not using the word affordable as in terms of what people can afford. many people can afford much higher with not even a blink of thought going into it, thats not the point. what im saying is in the general range of consoles, that would be considered an affordable price. while 600, no matter if its a lot of money or not to you personally, is expensive for a console.

how bout the 360.

[MuGen]

you can't say much about the 360 yet because once developers start on the path of HD-DVD and they release the peripheral for it... then you'll know just how much you invested in the 360

I don't want to watch HD-DVD movies on my 360.

Agreed. I think the vast majority of console buyers purchase consoles solely for games, with movie watching a distant afterthought.

$250 is a little high for the Wii. $200 makes more sense.

$250 makes me feel like I'm getting a better product. I know it sounds n00b but it's the truth. Doesn't raw inflation take account for this price though? I mean, it can't be the same price as the N64.
