A HUGE supply of the smash-hit console Nintendo Wii has hit British shops - sending prices tumbling.
Hundreds of small-time dealers are thought to be losing fortunes through an online bidding crash after thousands of units suddenly became available.
Some "shrewdies" at eBay stores believed they would make a killing by buying in as many Wii units as possible, hoping to double their cash through online bids by desperate parents. But now, units selling in Argos and Currys for £230 are going on eBay for as little as £147.
Market analysts last night described the reversal in fortunes for consumers"something of a Christmas miracle". One added: "All the signs were that theWii supply would not meet the demand.
"People have stocked up on them hoping a deluge would force up the price. But the opposite seems to be the case."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.

'Hundreds of small-time dealers are thought to be losing fortunes through an online bidding crash after thousands of units suddenly became available. '
Cry me a river, They wanted to play capitalism to their advantage and rip off consumers by overcharging for the wii. The saying 'taste your own medicine' comes to mind.
All I have to say is.. HA HA HA.
I sold my Wii at the beginning of Dec, just at the right time. I was so happy that I made a profit on a console I bought 12 months ago.. Cashback!
Serves them Ebay vultures right. Seems Nintendo did the right thing and stuffed the retail outlets with wii units to kill the greedy market bullies.
Europeans are already bored from it, good idea to sell it now
