AUSTRALIAN release and price announced... OUCH.

[Mentok]

The Wii will launch on December 7th and will retail for AU $399.95 (US $300.60)

Ouch.

Still, its better than the AU$1000 PS3

Its a good thing I get ZELDA free with my preorder. Makes the $50 mark up a little easier to swallow.

Looks like Canada is the only one not getting screwed over the conversion price. $249.99 US = $279.55 CDN +.44 cents = $279.99. Plus Wal-Mart and Superstore will bring the price down by atleast $1 or $2.

Where did you pre-order?

I'm thinking of either Target or just sticking with EB and stuffing the 'free game' deal.

This is what happens when you let your girlfriends idiot brother use your Hype account.

I did my pre order at Toys R Us because you get a free game included. MYER have also had preorder forms for a few weeks now but no free game offer (you get a coupon book so you can save up to $20 on games)
