[Wii] Nintendo following Sony, releasing value model of the Wii in Europe

Yesterday Sony announced a value PSP model, it seems that Nintendo are taking this philosophy and applying it to the Nintendo Wii.

The new bundle has been announced for Europe, Nintendo states that they believe they'll focus on this new budget bundle moving forward. This model seems designed specifically to lay horizontally and ditches all forms of Nintendo Gamecube support (including the ability to read the discs and the controller / memory ports).

The bundle comes with the Wii, a Wii Remote and Nunchuck, Wii Party and Wii Sports.

No pricing details have been announced at this point.

While it'll be cheaper to produce, do you really think the GameCube hardware in the Wii really contributed that much to the cost?
