Nintendo Wii Goes on Sale Ahead of Price Drop

According to rumors, Nintendo is gearing up to drop the price of its Wii game console in the middle of May by $50, dropping the cost down to $150. We'll have to wait and see if that happens, but in the meantime, both Best Buy and Toys R Us marked the motion-controlled console down to $170. Is it worth rolling the dice, or will you be kicking yourself in a month?
Unfortunately, we don't have the answer. Nintendo does, but the company hasn't made any kind of official announcement about an upcoming price drop, nor has it commented on the rumors. In other words, if you don't want to wait, this amounts to a $20 gamble, and possibly more depending on how long the reduced pricing lasts.
Both the white and black versions are available now for $170, and both come with Wii Sports Resort and Wii Remote Plus.
