Sarah Wrote:Nintendo NEVER drops prices so I'd say anyone looking for a price drop will be waiting until the next version comes out (probably around 2013) but yeah this is mostly my thought pattern. I want to get one before the good games come out because it's guaranteed that they will be coming. Not to mention that it's backwards compatible and also has the virtual store so it's not as if you need a bunch of good launch games to justify buying it right away.
...That's not true? Gamecube was $199.99 at launch and dropped to $99.99 by the end of its lifespan. DS phat was $149.99 at launch and dropped to $129.99 before the DS Lite came out. Many of its older systems also had price drops over time.
