Holy crap. I am overwhelmed with Wii news. And yes, 1UP is always my source. lol

Wii to Retail for $250, Ships Nov. 19

Nintendo's Wii will ship November 19 and retail for $250 if a report by The New York Times (by way of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer -- who appears to have leaked the story early, as it hasn't shown up on the New York Times webpage, yet) turns out to be legit. Right now, the masses are huddled around a press conference in Japan slated to get underway later this evening that is expected to detail the console's full launch plan.

Live from New York -- It's the Wii Conference

Sure, the Wii pricepoint and date leaked yesterday (expect it to ship Nov. 19 and retail for $250), but we're still on hand at Nintendo's press event in New York City locking down some of the details that the embargo-breaking New York Times' story didn't clear up.
