It seems Nintendo's not exactly going for bargain basement with the new iteration of the aging Wii. The Wii Mini's UK street price is £80. Considering you can pick up second hand, un-gimped Wiis for barely £50, I'm not sure why you'd ever buy this. [Amazon via Cnet] Read More >>

It's always been a bit of running joke to claim game publisher Electronic Arts flogs the same sports games to punters every year, changing the strips a bit and updating the player rotas to earn itself an easy £40.

Farming cows is a thankless task; keeping track of their fertility sounds funny, but it's what keeps meat in your burger and milk on your cereal.
