Well, well, well! Yesterday, I had a blog predicting what the release date and price of the Nintendo Wii will be here in Europe and let's just say, I have a smile on my face.

The reason why I do is because I was absolutely spot on with the release date of it, I said December 8th, which is my brother's birthday and a few minutes ago, I found out it was December 8th 2006 but alas, I was out by 20 quid with the price at £179.99. I know I said £200 but I meant £199.99.  But I believe that is still a great price though because it is under £200 and cheaper than both the Xbox 360 core system and the Playstation 3 (whenever it is released here in March 2007).

I am really happy that it is this year and not the next now and had a feeling it was going to be the week after the Japanese launch and I was right.  We basically have the same bundle as the US, which is good so I kind of feel sorry for Japan, as they are kind of getting the worst deal as they have no Wii Sports in their bundle.

Well, I am now going to save up for the Nintendo Wii and be there on launch day to get the Wii and The Legend of Zelda: Twlight Princess and probably Rayman and Red Steel also as they would be the games I would like to get for it the most.  Anyone else right with the date or/and price, let me know?
