Early RRPs from retailers have offered a variety of different prices for the system - the lowest for now being Amazon, which is asking for £199 for the basic edition.
Rival online retailer ShopTo.net has set a £280 price for the premium edition.
It is speculated, though not confirmed, that GameStation will charge £210 for the basic model and £250 for the premium.
Nintendo is not permitted to give an RRP for UK retailers. In the US the console costs $299 for the basic model and $349 for the premium edition.
Earlier today the platform holder revealed that the next generation Nintendo console will be split into two distinct SKUs, the main difference is that the basic model has an 8GB flash drive, and the premium model has a 32GB hard drive.
Nintendo revealed the details at a special press conference in New York, hours after it held a press conference for its Japan audience.
In Japan, the system will cost 31,500 yen (£252/$405) for a premium model and 26,250 yen (£210/$338) for a basic edition.
A free copy of Nintendo Land will come packaged with the console.
