Nintendo: $100 Wii U game prices are 'fictitious'

4.5
Nintendo has confirmed retailers listing Wii U games around the $100 range "are using fictitious prices".

Retailers such as Amazon and GameStop have begun to list Pikmin 3 and Lego City Undercover at the massive price point, and in a statement to GameSpot the platform holder confirmed official pricing details have not been revealed yet.
"Retailers are beginning their presale activity, but given there is no official software price, they are using fictitious prices," it said.

"When software pricing is officially announced later this year, I am sure retailers will adjust their websites to reflect the true price."

FMC If they want to never sell a game they are doing the right thing.

iMazur That would be absolutely ridiculous to charge $100 for a game, it's bad enough we have to pay $60


Yeah I agree! xD I wish games were cheaper :(


It's never going to happen. We are addicted to games and the deva now we won't stop buying from them if they increase the price


Yeah I know it's sadly true... I remember when games were released at 28 all the time...


We should have never let it get to this point. I knows games have become more advanced but I think 40 dollars is a reasonable price for a BRAND new game. Unlike 70 dollars
