Nintendo Gaming / Re: Price and Release Date Guess Thread

« on: April 27, 2011, 04:37:00 PM »

I'm going to go for the long shot; November 20th 2011, at $349.99.

I know what Iwata said, I just don't read it as meaning it can't come out this year. There are more reasons other then the system's not coming out this fiscal year to not yet estimate it's profits. Whether they are still looking at the price point, unsure of quantities available for a holiday launch, if they can even hit a holiday launch, plus it always looks better to revise estimated profits up, rather than down, mid-year.

All that said an early 2012, say February to June, launch would not surprise me in the least.

I am surprised that they would let someone circumvent friends codes at all, I do so hope this is a sign that Nintendo is learning about online play. We also have it on good grounds that not only does Nintendo not support their own perifials but actively discourages other developers from using them...
