I don't know if anyone posted this, but it seems that you can get up to date info HERE
225 is acceptable, though perhaps not ideal. I'd have preferred $200. At least it's better than $250, which seems to be what many expected..The latest rumor from a IGN poster who supposedly has good connections is $229 plus Wii sports packed in.

$229 is too much I think. That's only $70 cheaper than the 360. Of course, this is all just speculation at the moment so I'll wait for the real price announcement. Here's hoping for $199 with wii sports packed in. Also, the show starts 9pm EST not 8pm.
It would be nice if it had a pack-in game, but it's pretty okay.No, it is way too much IMO.
$229 with two wiimote+nunchuck plus pack-in game is pretty acceptable compared to a $300 bare XBOX360 with no games and nothing else packaged.

No problem. Anyway, 3 hours 30 minutes left :smile:

I think that "live" blog is fake. The press conference begins 14:00 JST, not 10:00 JST.

Oh sorry! The stock news I saw was apparently wrong. I edited my post out.huh. both gonintendo and the GWN blog started reporting on the event - maybe it is actually going already. one?

Yeah, the gwn blog is gone now! And the picture of Iwata at GWN angelcurio posted seemed to be the one from the conference in the last yearone, it seems your source was right after all - GWN were spoofing. i edited my relevant posts (lost the edit count already, doh). gotta love the 'net "journalism" these days.
Update: We were given the incorrect streaming feed - this page will be updated as soon as we can confirm further details.

The latest rumor from a IGN poster who supposedly has good connections is $229 plus Wii sports packed in.
Pretty underwhelming if you ask me. Something like 149 would have blown the doors off. But I'm sure all that motion sensor technology isn't cheap. And I'm also sure Nintendo wants to continue making a fat profit off of hardware sales.
