It seems as though every console price cut is preceded by a wave of online leaks before an official announcement is made.
Nintendo is no different.
A "Toys R Us" advertisement seems to be confirming that the price of console forerunner Nintendo Wii will be cut to $199.
The price change of the Wii would come just weeks after both Sony and Microsoft announced price cuts on their consoles bringing each to around $299 for comparable models.
However, it seems as though Microsoft's price edge with a $199 Xbox 360 Arcade will soon be met with a $199 Nintendo Wii effective September 27.
Nintendo could easily do without a price drop as consumers appear to still be enthralled with the motion controlled system which should now remain the cheapest console.
Alas, I still do not foresee any increase in sales for the Wii with the minor price reduction.
