After being stuck so long at $249, we can hardly believe the Wii is “pulling a PS3” and going down in price at last — outside of the insurmountable mountains of evidence we had of the price drop before Nintendo could get around to confirming it, of course. The console will begin retailing for $199.99 (~$200 for us math types) on September 27, which is this Sunday.
Update: The Wii will fall to ¥20,000 in Japan, which represents a 20 percent drop.
Update 2: Looks like those of you getting paid in Euros will be asked to shell out €199.99.
