Nintendo Gaming / Re: So, I just ordered a bunch of M-rated Wii games off Amazon

Like Kairon said, it is admirable of Nintendo to keep the price point of Wii games at 50 bucks instead of the $60 that are seen on other consoles (and even at least one of Nintendo's previous consoles). But, with it comes the downside that everyone keeps mentioning. Nintendo doesn't lower the price of their own games.
Remember back in the days of the Cube when Nintendo would deem a game "worthy" of it's Player's Choice award and lob 20 dollars or whatever it was? Sure that was probably to squeeze as many sales out of the poor system as it could. But now with these "evergreen" titles, they don't have to do that because the games just.keep.selling. - making it a little harder to swallow for some of us bargain shoppers.
