I thought the Wii costs $250, but when I searched online, the lowest I could find was $375!!?? When and why did it get so expensive, and when will it be reasonably priced?

The wii is the cheapest next generation console out there. If you go to a store itll be 250 if you can find one but people selling them online will be jacking up there prices.

The Wii has to be one of the cheapest consoles ever released, look at the PS3 its raving expensive compared to the Wii.

Lol, the Nintendo Wii is well to cheap compared to the other two. Its around £180 here, so double that and thats the price what it should be in dollers. Where did you find your pricing from anyway, online, or in a store? Please don't say Ebay.

I would say the biggest reason the Wii is so expensive is because everyone wants one, and some will pay that much or more for one. So, if they have very few out, and you want to get one, you'll pay what they cost.

I would never buy one off eaby all togeather, they are always fake or something. Also I agree they are probably scams when consoles fisrt are released. I would buy GBA and DS games from ebay though.

Yeah, its the high price technology you have to watch, ipods, TVs, mobiles, consoles etc.

Games are fine, just gotta watch the PC stuff as a lot is fake, console games not so much.
