Wii price cut to come no later than November

Pachter: Wii price cut no later than November - VideoGamer.com

I know the price cut was announced a while ago (I read some pretty whiney things about it, some which astonished me), but this helps put a timeline on it all.

He's a holding firm analyist that thinks he knows Nintendo better than Nintendo, this is the same guy who was 'absolutely convinced' Wii would have HD in 2009 and that Nintendo would be making a huge mistake if they didn't unbundle Wii from Wii Sports.

They won't cut the price.

For the same reason they crashed the attempt to put Goldeneye from the N64 on XBLA and don't make sequels to Star Fox.

As long as they keep the lead in sales, they don't technically need to change the price anyway.

I still don't believe this. One because of a random guy's prediction, and two because that toys r us ad looks like a high schooler's photoshop project then printed out on regular printer paper.

What I mean is that just because it looks like a Toys R Us ad might not mean that it is legit yet. When it actually gets released then I will believe it.
