The ultimate 3-letter Wii domains (prices)

[wii]

Well, just for the fun of it, I will try to keep up with the prices of the 3-letter Wii domains - here we go:

Wii.com - recently transferred to Nintendo, price unknown.
Wii.net - they are asking 120,000 US dollars (crazy, if you ask me)
Wii.org - not answering emails, asking price unknown.
Wii.info - they are asking at least 10,000 US dollars
Wii.biz - for sale at Sedo, minimum 2,000 US dollars
Wii.us - sold for 1,500 US dollars
Wii.nu - sold for 510 US dollars

That´s it for now, I will try to get some more info later.

I thought you had Wii.us. I keep seeing it on the forums...

Anyway, I cant believe Nintendo didnt snap them all up before the announcement - or more akin to human nature - that a member of staff in the loop didnt snap them up!

Wii.net.. Umm, sounds a lot but the Japanese companies are very relaxed about development of their TMs so it could be developed and obtain substatial traffic, ads, etc..
Still, I would have put it at $20000-30000.

If I am not mistaken, you have missed out three domain extensions that would, in my mind, come higher up the ranks of 'ultimate':-

Wii.co.uk (http://wii.co.uk has nameservers and pointing to Nintendo. Possibly in the process of being transferred to Nintendo's hands?)
Wii.eu
Wii.de

List updated:

Wii.nu - sold for 510 US dollars at Sedo.

wii.com i believe was registered before the announcment of the wii.

wii.nu sold for $500!?!? WOW!

 

[peaches017]

wii.us was recently purchased by athletec64

 

[wii]

Almost all the good Wii domains were taken before Nintendos announcement.

Do you have the price ?

wii.us was recently purchased by athletec64

The .ca - wii.ca is beyond Nintendo's grasp. It was registered in 2000 and belongs to Williamson Industries Inc. Renewal date - 2013 = no chance of catching it in a drop.

 

[wii]

Well, never say never, Wii.com was registered back in 1994, don´t remember the name of the company, but Nintendo got it just recently.

 

[whitebark]

Well unless they try to buy it - attempting to go through CIRA will get them a big goose-egg.

You also missed the very important premium highly valuable WII.hk

 

[wii]

No bets have been made at Sedo for wii.hk.

wii.com i believe was registered before the announcment of the wii.

Most defnitely

Do you have the price ?

Somewhere between $1,250 and $1,500, but I am leaning toward $1,500 based on the content of the thread.

[athletec64]

It was 1500

and to wot, i dont think wii.hk is anywhere close to wii.biz / us / those type of extensions

 

[matt_bodis]

Wii.info was also sold here on Namepros privately. I have a ballpark but cannot disclose it.

I also sold Xbox.info on Namepros as well. Again same person, they asked me not to say. When I contacted the Wii.net owner right after Wii announcement I believe he quoted me 180k. I guess he lowered his asking price. :p

The rest is unknown.

 

[wii]

Wii.net should be around 20-30.000 US dollars, not a cent more.

I will add the new info to the list.
