News: Not yet says Iwata.
Reuters is reporting that Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has said there will not be a price cut for the Wii or DS this year. The comments apparently came from a financial briefing with industry analysts.
"Our earnings projection for the year is not based on hardware price cuts, and I don't think we are going to need them," Iwata said.
Nintendo's fiscal year began in April, so if Iwata is telling the truth, the earliest a Wii or DS price cut could happen is April 2009.
