Speaking on Friday last week Nintendo VP of Sales and Marketing Reggie (yes, people are still called ‘Reggie’) Fils-Aime announced that the Revolution will sell for less than $300: under £170 in UK coin. We don’t know how this could be eeked up for the British market, but with the decent version of the Xbox 360 (you all need the ‘optional’ HDD, ok?) going for £279.99 that’s a significant saving. On top of this, the PS3 is rumoured to cost in excess of £300 when it launches later this year.
