MCV sources have revealed that Sainsburys are set to aggressively cut the price of Wii and 360 hardware.

As of tomorrow morning, the supermarket chain will reportedly cut the Nintendo Wii from £179.97 to £149.97, whilst the Xbox 360 Arcade is to be dropped from £129.97 to £99.97. The Xbox 360 60GB is also going to be reduced from £169.97 to £139.97.

Great news for anyone still not sure about what to buy there children or even themselves for Christmas ,or hey even just a treat :) Well its good news for you.

I am going to buy my third xbox 360 at these prices, also if anyone is going out to buy a 360 soon you should consider what batch you get, the new Jasper board 360`s are apparently out there and to ensure you get one of those boards (should be far more reliable and cooler boards) you should check the following information.

manufacturing date (MFR) as early as 2008-08-06, Lot 8031 and up, and Team CSON.

So I am curious, is there anyone here who has not already got an xbox 360 and are now going to get one with these price drops ? (assuming this information is accurate lol)

I suspect that other large stores like tesco and asda in the UK will beging reducing there prices to compete so with a bit of luck for we the consumer we should be saving a bit of cash and that's never ever a bad thing, is it ? hehe
