The rumors were true, and Nintendo's knight in shining armor is finally about to see its first-ever price drop. Beginning on September 27th at Best Buy (and everywhere else, naturally), the happy-go-lucky machine will be offered for just $199.99. Interestingly, it appears that suits at BB expect Nintendo to make an official announcement on the drop this Friday, yet retail stores won't begin selling at the discounted rate until Sunday.
Rumour:
Advance retail listings forwarded to Kotaku indicate that Nintendo is planning to issue its first price drop on the Wii, with a less expensive version of the console—currently priced at $249—coming the first week of October.
Seeing as how the demand for the Wii has pretty much leveled out, GameStop is desperate to sell some Wiis. How desperate? They're offering f**cking rubber duckies! Don't like rubber duckies? Well how about some pirate tattoos?! OR HOW ABOUT A WATER GUN?!
