Wii price hike larks.

Dead eyes.

Fucking hell, Angel's let himself go a bit.

Well, we’ve recently had a pop at Microsoft and Sony so, in the interests of fairness, it must be Nintendo’s time.  What can we have a moan about?  Oh, here’s something.  In a reversal of usual console pricing, the Wii (which is over two years old) is actually going up in price.  Despite the fact that it’s sold about a trillion units since yesterday.

The Wii is going to cost retailers an extra £22 now and it is up to them if they want to add that to their prices.  What do you reckon?  They are blaming the exchange rate between the pound and yen, even though Nintendo still think that England is simply a level in a platforming game somewhere.  Greedy pricks.

Also, in unrelated and uninteresting news, Nintendo have ceased supplying white and silver DS Lites.  Shame really as a white DS Lite is a thing of sleek beauty.  Even if most of the games on it are dogshit.  Nintendo are all about the red, black, green and turquoise ones apparently.

Anyway, here’s hoping that Nintendo’s fanbase carry themselves with a lot more dignity than Killzone 2’s.  We don’t want to go through that again in a hurry.
