Wii Mini
Nintendo releases the Wii Mini, a cheaper version of the Wii that lacks WiFi capabilities and Gamecube compatibility. It is released around the same time as the $299 Wii U at a price of $99. Cindy Gordon, the company’s Vice President of Corporate Affairs, says:
We understand that different systems and games appeal to different people, so we wanted to provide enough value and variety to make it easy for shoppers to find something for everyone on their list.
