cheaper Nintendo Wii

Nintendo follows the footsteps of Sony and Microsoft by slashing the price of its Wii system, where you can now pick it up for $199.99. Of course, taking a look around at online deals might help you save more as selected stores do offer some sort of further rebate or throw in a free game of your choice at that price point. This $50 price cut might not be effective enough to stem the tide of rejuvenated PS3 Slim sales (moving more than a million units within a week of its availability worldwide), but it does help make casual gaming all the more affordable in time for the upcoming holiday season that will see the world start loosening their wallets a little bit more.

As for 4 x 6 photos, they are pretty quick at 24 seconds each.
