Nintendo Spins The Cheap Wii — Available Everywhere

Oh, we hate to be I-told-you-so’s. But I told you so.

Nintendo of America’s CEO was on MSNBC this week touting the lower price — and the fact that he has warehouses full of — Nintendo’s once mighty Wii.

Fils-Aime remained confident that Wii sales would pick up after its $50 price cut last month. “We lasted 34 months in the marketplace without having to cut the price,” he said. “The next group of consumers, we will get at this $199 price point, and we’ve already seen very strong results after just one week in the marketplace with $199.”

That’s code for “Come and get ‘em, folks!”.
