Welcome to the AnimeFuel Community Forums, I'm the owner of this website Demon fox and lucky for you I'm not here to use my ninja skills on yah, plenty of time for that later I assure you. Instead I'll be telling you a little about this place.

As you should be able to tell by now you are not registered with us as of yet and probably need a good reason to do so. Between you and I we both know you're a lazy bastard and so if you don't even want to listen to the rest of my introduction speech you may as well just go register.

Otherwise here's what you can do on our forums once you've registered. When you register you will be able to chit chat in our forums, entertain yourself with games and share videos with other members. The forums allows you to get access to free downloads shared by members, fast and direct support with video problems from members and staff and make anime requests which are priortized above anyone else's.

There are many more things you can do but our aim is to bring together a community of video fans where you can feel comfortable and make lots of friends around the world. God knows you need them.

So get your butt over to the registration page and join my I mean OUR community. Oh and one more thing watch out for a crazy guy with a gun he's wandering around somewhere in these pages and you'll probably see him if you become really slack with the forum.

This message will self destruct once registration is completed.

Default Wii Price drop coming?

http://kotaku.com/5359038/toys-r-us-...rop-this-month

A rumor has started out recently about Nintendo announcing a price drop to their Wii console. After 3 years the Wii is the only current generation console to have not had a price drop or have multiple models made of. Selling at it's original price of $250, it swept past the more complex and more powerful PS3 and 360 consoles in every market, though the problems since the Gamecube are still lingering, as third party games struggle to sell and quality hard to find outside of Nintendo's first party games.


With this, sales are starting to drop, and now with a PS3 with a VERY competitive price of $300, Nintendo needs to continue ground.

So, do you think that this price drop will help Nintendo out any? Or will they soon slip behind one of the other companies?

People will keep buying Wiis anyways because they have made it so casual at this point the Wii is just like some toy. I haven't touched my Wii in months, and I probably won't until next year when Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid Other M come out. New Super Mario Bros. is a maybe.

As for the price drop, although Nintendo has gone a bit casual, they still know how to make good business. I'm surprised they didn't do this sooner in fact. Now that the other guys have lowered their prices too, Nintendo would be foolish not to do so as well. I'm not sure whether or not Nintendo will be ousted as leader from this, they do have a pretty comfortable lead - but time shall tell.

Pfft, Nintendo doesn't need to do a price drop. The Wii will keep selling like hotcakes and they know it. But if they do a price drop anyway, it'll sell even more like hotcakes. Nintendo wins at sales no matter what, even if they lose in quality.

Target has put out an advertisement too for the wii getting a price drop, which means this rumor might be a bit more valid. We'll see if more stores announce price drops.
