Nintendo America president Reggie Fils-Aime said today that Wii Fit will be launching on May 19 and the price including the Wii Fit Board would be under $100. He said they still working to finalize the price given currency exchanges but it could be close to the $83 it costs in Japan. In terms of marketing, Reggie said Wii Fit is likely be Nintendo's largest launch of the year from a total dollar spend standpoint. Reggie said that there were 10 games in development that take advantage of the Balance Bord, so you won't be paying all that money for a peripheral that will only be used on one game. Reggie seemed to contradicted Nintendo Japan president Saturo Iwata by saying that he believes Wii Fit combines fun and fitness, Iwata had previously said the game is not meant to make you fit, just aware of your body.

IGN: What're the chances of a Wii Fit console bundle and how soon might such a package come to fruition?

Reggie Fils-Aime: In terms of Wii hardware bundled with Wii Fit? As you know, Matt, we continue to sell out of Wii consoles as soon as we put them into the market and until we've gotten to a point of stable demand and supply, I don't see any different package configurations hitting the market. While a Wii Fit plus Wii console would be a fantastic idea, until we've got much more product into the marketplace, it just doesn't make sense to even contemplate it right now.
