In advance of the release of their newest home console, Nintendo has dropped the price of the Nintendo Wii.<\/p>\n
The value package, which bundles both Wii Sports and Wii Spots Resort on one disc with the black edition of the console, will retail for $129.99 and should be available in stores by October 28th.<\/p>\n
This bundle will replace the current black Wii that comes with New Super Mario Bros. Wii.<\/p>\n
“Nearly six years after it launched, people are still attracted to the pure, inclusive fun of the Wii console,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “A new suggested retail price and the inclusion of two great games make it an easy choice for families looking for a great value this holiday season.”<\/p>\n
