Wii Mini SA pricing: worth it?

How much are you willing to spend on Nintendo’s stripped-down Wii?

Wow...can't you get a normal Wii for less?

There will be no backward compatibility with GameCube games, leaving the console a dedicated Wii gaming machine.

Does this mean that the older Wii games won't work on this eiter, e.g. Wii Sports Resort?

All Wii games will work. Just no GameCube games.

This is so irrelevant, I don't know why they even bothered brining it here.

Ja, ne? The Wii is not the current Nintendo console anymore...now they bring a scaled down one with less functionality and slap the same price tag on it as the also-not-relevant full functionality one. I don't see this selling many units in SA. Unless it suddenly gains a few sales in the budget gaming market, like the PS2 did in recent years.
