The price of Wii U could be around $299

Follow the rumors about Nintendo’s console.

The latest rumors from the U.S. on the price of the Nintendo Wii U, to be launched in time for the holiday season worldwide, suggest that it will cost $299.

The price, as usual in the U.S. system does not include taxes (they vary from state to state) and in Canada by provinces, but its conversion to the euro would be around, in figure about the 243 €. If the price is finally confirmed as real, we can expect a price in Europe to be around the 299 € (taxes included).

This time, the rumor has been picked up by Shane Satterfield, from GameTrailers, who says that “we will assume that the price of Wii U will be $299. And I’ve heard from some sources that will be the price of the console.”

So far, Nintendo has not announced no price or official release date, although it is expected that the announcement will come in the coming weeks.
