$638.88 for everything I would want. Not too shabby, that's like 6 more games and an extra controller and numchuk. With that much I could only get ONE PS3 with no games. SWEET!!!
Definately not as 'cheap' as I thought either, but it looks great. Nintendo is gouging me $60 bucks they wouldn't be geting otherwise because Sony has mismarketed its ps3.
I believe the thought was something like $5, $10, $15 for games (depending on nes, snes, n64..) so at $.01 a point thats 500, 1000, 1500 points. Actually alot easier conversion that xbox live points
If you really want to know the price, it's best to do what people have done in the UK and calculate it based on your own location (using Google to find your city's homepage and tax info).I want to also point out that the MSRP for many of the Wii launch titles is NOT $49.99, but $59.99 for QUITE a few. I can't imagine spending more on monkeys and balls than ZELDA. @_@For anyone buying more than 3 games, why not just wait till after launch and buy it on Amazon? You could save almost $200 in taxes (Wii included). $200 that could be spent on games. I'd like to play asap, but the tax-free option is hard to ignore.

Sadly, it looks like Twilight Princess will be the only game worth getting at launch.$447 is expensive for one game...
