Wii Fit priced for $90 at GameStop, pre-order $10
Nintendo confirmed with Joystiq that the only thing released is that [Wii Fit] will be under $100 when it debuts on May 19. North America is the only announced region for Wii Fit without a confirmed price tag, with Europe and Australia ready to pay over $100 USD for the pressure-sensitive sweat board.

I think it's a good idea but needs to be more around $69.99 to be a big hit. Million-seller is probable, but I don't know beyond that.

It will have better sales here in USA.
Get ur ass back on the porch.
I can't think of what his site is...I know GoNintendo makes a weekly post about it, though.
Unfortunately, though, my mom has already heavily hinted that she wants it for her birthday. So, I will sadly be purchasing this overpriced bathroom scale.
I hate this piece of crap with a passion...

I know that $90 is not taking into account state sales tax but relative to us you are getting a bargain.
So spare a thought for us when you are (not) buying this 'expensive' 'game' :-)
You can be delusional if you want man but this thing is no more than a glorified scale. It may sell 3 million worldwide but that does not make it anything other than what it is. Maybe if used in conjuction with a regular fitness and proper diet it could be useful. However, coulnd't the same results if not better be achieved for free doing push ups and sit ups? I guess it wouldn't be as much fun would it? Only Nintendo can repackage a scale to make working out more interactive. Jeez some people will buy anything.
See my post below for why your logic about this game's expense is wrong.
I don't really care anyway, as any gamer that does buy this deserves to die young no matter how much it costs :-)

Maybe they'll get Jack Lalane to sell it on TV for "3 easy payments of $29.99?"

If any of you on this site buy this, I will be a sad panda...

And the Nintendonald moniker. It's lame. Especially since I'm assuming you are trying to insult Nintendo and not compliment it. So if you're implying Nintendo is similar to McDonald's. That would be a compliment since Micky D's is one of the most successful companies in the world. Not that I like eating there. I'm more of a Burger King guy but that doesn't mean I have to stick my head up my ass and not admit it when someone is doing well.
i cant believe you eat that crap from Burger King. you really ought to reconsider your eating habits for your own health's sake.

Many of the higher priced (read: more than $70) items have had $10 reserve amounts to them, including my GTA IV LE pre-order and I think $10 was the amount for the Guitar Hero bundles in the past (I suck at rythem games, so I haven't been riding the GH train). My Halo and Bioshock LEs also came with an increased reserve amount.

Look at the relative prices, the exchange rate screws it all up. This game is still pretty expensive in the US market.
