would the wii have been as successful if it were priced more?

now i know everyone proclaims that they love their wii...even their g/f. plus im fully aware that the price of the wii is a very accomodating investment for the average teen/adult, but what if it were priced @ a much steeper price? im pretty sure casual gamers would stagger on giving an extra $100 or so. but what if it were? do you think you would still buy it after realizing its revered "fun" capabilities, or just do without the machine???

i think they priced it perfectly

if it was $100 more, alot of ppl, including me, probably wouldn't buy it

i don't think it would be worth the extra $100

THe argument doesn't make much sense since Nintendo already makes a small profit on the system as it is.

If it was more expensive there'd be higher end pieces

If we're talking pretend then yes I would have no problem paying 600 dollars for my Wii but since we're also in a pretend world I'm going to guess that every single person in the world would own one as well.

Considering that the dollar is doing so poorly lately, $250 really means a lot more than that to many people, yet it still flies off the shelves.

On top of that, a lot of people are willing to buy Wiis on eBay for over $300, so I think it would still sell relatively well. Not as well as it has been, but I think it could still stay afloat.

I'd brought one if it £50 more. If it was any more i'd probaly gotten a PS3 and waited couple months too a price drop or i could pick up a 2nd hand Wii.
