Nintendo won’t issue RRPs in the UK, so retail is this afternoon having its best guess regarding the price of the upcoming hardware.
And the early guesses suggest no-one really knows
First off, Play.com has gone with an RRP and sale price of £179.99. ShopTo is selling the device for the same price (well, £179.84) but estimates an RRP of £199.99.
On the other end of the scale Zavvi is selling the device for £209.95, though it reckons the RRP is a whopping £249.99.
That’s a £70 difference between the three retailers. Which means all we can be certain of is that Nintendo has not yet communicated the handheld’s trade price.
The machine has been given a US RRP of $199.99, pointing to something around the £180 mark in the UK.
