Imagine a 32gig Wii U bundled with Mario Kart 8 and Super Smash Bros. U (+$100) pre-installed with NO gamepad (-$100 cost) and a pro controller with a wireless keyboard (for miiverse/login/etc) all for $250.

I personally think this would be very smart. This would cause a LOT of people to buy Wii U's and obviously more games (including maybe 3rd party and absolutely the amazing eshop indie games) and Nintendo could deal with the loss of revenue from sales profits from these games via two ways: 1) Increased revenue in overall software sales would skyrocked with more hardware out there. 2) They could include cosmetic DLC for both games (similar to Guildwars 2 gemstore) that adds no benefits other than aesthetics. Plenty of people would be willing to pay $2.00 to change what a character/weapon/kart looks like (same stats obviously) in either of these games I'm sure.

For you non Wii U owners, would this make you throw your money at Nintendo?
