Wii reportedly will see price drop

There's a first time for everything, right?

Nintendo, which has never cut the price of its poplar Wii video game system since its debut in 2006, will see its price drop by $50 to $200 beginning Sunday, Tech blog Engadget is reporting.

Engadget cited a leaked memo from Best Buy Co. talking about the price drop.

This also comes after rival console makers Microsoft and Sony cut the prices of the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 video game systems in August.

But the Wii is king - it's the top selling console on the planet.
