Well, if you put it into pounds, the prices seem more reasonable.
As long as you don't show the pound symbol, and make people think in dollar terms.

Nintendo included an image of a new Wii controller hidden within a package of hardware screenshots available for download on the Nintendo press site. The image titled "Wii_classic_0501" shows a gamepad-shaped controller with a Wii logo front and center.
The "classic" file name suggests that the controller will be used for classic Nintendo games that use a traditional gamepad interface.
The controller is reminiscent of a Super Nintendo gamepad with its oval shape, D pad, and x, y, a, and b buttons set in a familiar diamond formation. The controller also features what appear to be four buttons along the top of the controller. The classic controller face also has two analog sticks, which are necessary to maintain GameCube compatibility.

Absolutely perfect? Unlike, say, the original Xbox controller, with those two little black and white buttons way out in Timbuktu? I don't know what kind of crackhead decided to put those there. With the PS controller you just have to move your thumbs a little bit to access all the buttons and sticks except for the start and select. A good deal more comfortable in my experience as well.Let us be lazy in everything, except in loving and drinking, except in being lazy – Lessing

Heh.... people are rabid about their consoles on the Off Topic .“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Yeah, but there hadn't been any posts for about a half hour.“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

With video games and consoles, most developers consider the exchange rate to be $1=£1, so expect this system to have a price tag of at least £400 (assuming that they realise that £500 would be bat**** insane and lower it a bit) in the UK.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

I watched the Nintendo press conference and the controller is pretty cool, actually. Its too bad the system is underpowered. And its also unfortunate Nintendo games are a lame, IMO. Lets hope they'll get solid third-party support this time around.Let us be lazy in everything, except in loving and drinking, except in being lazy – Lessing

May as well buy a PC now. They're more versatile."And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man." -- JFK Inaugural, 1961
"Extremism in the defense of liberty is not a vice." -- Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Nomination acceptance speech (not George W. Bush 40 years later...)

I think the PS3 is overpriced, and that when all the benchmarks come out that it will probably be about the same speed as the xbox360. I think that Sony is on a losing streak for the moment with Ipods, Wow, Samsung, and the xbox360 all stealing Sony's lunch money.
