I've said it before and I'll say it again. They would not announce a price drop months in advance. It hurts the sales leading up to the price cut and they'd lose money. They'll do bundles before a price drop anyways.
The only problem is I can see Reggie's comment and see Nintendo thinking $400 USD is a great value for the tech, but I already know if it is $400 I'm waiting for a price drop. I'm hoping they learned their lesson with the 3DS and they keep the price affordable.
I haven't been on here complaining but I do hate the no VC weeks and I have 129 VC games and 23 Wiiware. Only about 5 Wiiware were worth it in the end. I have less then 5 regrets from the VC side. And yes I do have a lot but thats because I get a lot of gifts and I rarely buy retail games anymore.
@Twilighv Hes thinking we'll get Sonic & Knuckles because Sega is releasing it on 09-09-09 for the XBLA, I think/hope the next Sega game is Earthworm Jim 2 i was hoping it would be released today.
@ Ninjatendo the n64 version had a cheat for invincibilty and its different from the gamecube version. besides a Resident Evil 2 gamecube disc goes for about $40 used....
Tetris Party has knocked World of Goo down to 2nd place on the USA Wiiware chart shortly after this was posted, I'd say it's because of the Tetris Party tournament but thats my guess.
@ Linktothefuture, All SNES games require a Classic controller (or Gamecube controller) to play.
As for "bad" game's being cheaper then good game's, well if they did that then people would complain that good game's are priced too high. plus as someone mentioned it depend's on the individual's tastes of what's good and what's bad.
Actually Zelda 2 was number 100 for North America, Lords of Thunder was number 200. but some would say Harvest Moon was 200 but since i prefer Lords of Thunder over Harvest Moon i call Lords of Thunder 200.

Re: Waiting For Wii U To Drop In Price? Not Going To Happen, Says Nintendo
Nintendo: We're going to drop the price in November so go ahead and stop buying WiiU's in the mean time. It'll look good on our portfolio numbers.

Re: EU VC Releases: Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa and Dig Dug
I was expecting you to get DoReMi this week but Bio Miracle is also good, figures they save the best game for the final week of the Hanabi Festival.
My opinion of course.
