More then happy with that price!

Nix · 8th Sep 2006, 10:42

£149 is tempting but i would have to chose between that or my new tattoo.

Hopefully i can do both.

Also this forum thread isnt linked in the article... Getting sloppy Will

Temptation to turn to the side of Ninty!

Been a sony and PC gamer all me life, but so far, they haven't half messed up their new console. I just can't say no to 150 quid and lots of damn good innovations.

<A88> · 8th Sep 2006, 10:54

How conveniant that I turn 18 16 days before

. Will obviously need another £50 for controllers and game but that sounds a blummin bargain to me.

lol its my birthday 4days after. Great timing

£149 is a great price, i hope the games remain cheap as chips too!

Krikkit · 8th Sep 2006, 11:03

Oh god yes.

_DTM2000_ · 8th Sep 2006, 11:05

Thats very tempting but I think I'll wait until next year and see what the games are like. The 360 is still my first choice though, I fancy getting one of those next year as well but money is a bit tight. I better get saving up.

So this has WiFi, sound, video, 2x USB, a DVD drive and an SD card reader? And it costs £149... that's less than a thin client. I'm getting one of these!

airchie · 8th Sep 2006, 11:12

sweet, the day after my 28th birthday!

Sounds like Ninty are on to a winner tbh...

Shadow_101 · 8th Sep 2006, 11:31

Even as a poor student I think this is going to be some student loan money well spent.

scrumble · 8th Sep 2006, 11:46

I have no idea what the official pronunciation of it is, but whenever I see its name I just think:

"I'm just nipping out for a Wii"

"Well make you flush, dear"

riggs · 8th Sep 2006, 12:04

Frikin' sweet! £149 is a bargain...
Will probably get one on launch day (providing I have some spare cash).

r4tch3t · 8th Sep 2006, 12:28

Very tempted, depends if there are more than ten games I want though.

severedhead · 8th Sep 2006, 12:31

Only 3 days after my birthday, wii! I know where that money is being spent.

DXR_13KE · 8th Sep 2006, 12:35

UK£ 149 = 219.81 €

hmmmmm..... tasty......wiiiiiiiiiiii

1 month before christmas.... even more interesting.

eek · 8th Sep 2006, 12:36

O dear! This is a v tempting price... now it's just a matter of prioritising my funds: food or wii?!

alextwo · 8th Sep 2006, 12:37

If it is £149 then that's a price that certainly has me attracted to it. Pfft... to think I was even considering a PS3.
