SeattlePi is reporting that Wii will launch in North America on November 19 at a price of $250USD ($349AUD).

Head inside for more info, including launch title information, VC info and more!

[UPDATE] The article with the following information has been pulled. The New York Times allegedly broke the embargo so we can only assume they’ve been silenced.
– More than 25 games will be available at launch.
– Wii Sports – a compilation of sporting titles – bundled with each console.
– 30 Virtual Console titles available; priced between $5-10USD
– Dedicated media channels: Photo (allows users to upload digital photos to share), easy-to-use news and Weather. Possibility of more.
– Plans to ship 4 million Wii units worldwide this year.
– Wii games to retail for $50USD.

Please note that the information in the article is not 100% confirmed so it’s best to wait for the official word from Nintendo. Nintendo Australia is set to reveal Australian launch specifics tomorrow so keep an eye on Vooks.
