The Wii price was bad news.

The PS3 price was HORRIBLE news.


PS3 price gets my vote.

My nomination is the entire PS3 launch everything totally flopped and was rather unexpected.

Ditto. At that pricetag I was able to buy a console within months of launch for the first time ever.

QFT. Paying for cheat codes? Horse Armor Pack? $5 for crappy games that you can play for free everywhere else? It's not even close in this category, IMO.

Launch shortages galore (PS3, Wii, wii remotes and nunchucks).

Wii/PS3 pricing info (PS3's high entry fee, Wii's nickel and diming accesories)
