GameTrailers: The Nintendo Wii U Will Cost $299

We’ve been hearing a lot of opinions on the price of the upcoming Nintendo Wii U, but Shane Satterfield, Editor-in-Chief of GameTrailers has said that the system will retail for $299. Now, this doesn’t sound like an opinion  to me; Satterfield mentioned that he heard through “certain channels” that this is going to be the launch price.  Well, $299 sounds reasonable to me. -Greg Boe (admin)

      They will most certainly not! Halo is made by Microsoft, the first party publisher for XBox, not Wii U, or any other console for that matter!

      Same here! I just hope that the Wii U GamePads will sell for no more than $50.
