What the hell, wii?

[saffakanera]

Can someone please care to explain why the HELL the Wii costs three and a HALF THOUSAND ROUNDS?

Bought mine when it arrived in SA for R2800. Guess it has to do with demand. The games are also insanely expensive...

Bliksem dude, so when they sell 5 wii's they up the price by R1000? God help the people who want Iphones in a year lol. Dude yea I used to have a Wii, same thing bought it for like R2800 at CNA when it released, long since sold it, just so damn surprised by the prices! You literally can pick up a second hand PS3 for the price of a new Wii, insane.

Nice nick btw, that comfortably numb by Pink Floyd? great song

I just heard that a UK chain store is going to sell the 360 arcade systems for 99 squid....

Good lord we get shafted.

That's a retailer special, they're taking a loss on the console to get peeps into stores.

As far as the Wii goes - that's Core for you (Apple SA) they have always taken pride in rodgering the SA public and doing it with a smile.

I paid R2700 @ game during the beginning of this year

AFAIC The Wii is the only console that is not selling at a loss.

Still think PS3 is a good buy if you're considering buying a BLU-ray player...
