Nintendo Wii prices already reduced in UK by £65

As a follow up on my last post : New HD Nintendo Wii coming : More importantly, prices of original Wii going to be slashed 

Looks like Nintendo has already started reducing the prices of its original Wii console. This morning UK saw prices of Wii dropping from £165(approx Rs 12,000) to mere £99.99(approx Rs 7,200).

But wait a second, don't get too excited by seeing that Rs 7,200, for we people in India don't expect the Wii to cost so less. We don't know exactly when will prices be reduced in India, but we expect them to be dropped very soon.

So this is good news, according to some reports, Nintendo is soon going to launch a new HD Wii.

The Nintendo Wii has always been a class apart from its competition and a great console for casual gamers. At the moment there is no HD gaming console in the market and this will definitely be a first and you can expect the rest of the makers to follow soon.

While Microsoft is busy with its Kinect success and Sony is busy with its new NGP console, Nintendo will definitely steal the show with this HD console.

It's expected that Nintendo will make an official announcement at E3 which is to be held in June in Los Angeles.

More importantly, the price of the original Wii is expected to be reduced. Currently the Nintendi Wii is available for Rs 17,890 on LetsBuy. This is great news and we are looking forward to the announcement being made at E3.

If your planning to buy a Wii, put your purchase on hold, you may just end up saving 4-5 k.
