So is Nintendo not even trying to get sales now?

The UK retail has adopted Black Friday quite heavily this year (Black Friday has never been a thing over here).  Right now can find Xbox One and PS4 bundles for super cheap, like PS4+Driveclub for £280, GTAV and TLOU for £300, Xbone+CoD:AW for £270, Xbone+4 games for £300.  Plus lots more.

Meanwhile Nintendo bundles are sitting at the prices they were 6 months ago, or last year.  Many have no discount at all.  Wii U+SSB+MK+CPP =£300.  Thats right, costs more than the PS4/Xbone bundles.

Why has Nintendo not done deals with retailers for Black Friday deals?  Have they given up?  Do they think they don't have enough games to make back the discount loss in future software sales?

The Wii U situation in the UK is pretty sad atm.

It's not that Nintendo is not trying get sales, it's just that retailers are just not stocking Wii Us anymore, my local ASDA doesn't even have a Wii U section like it did last year and during last summer they were offering the base Wii U model for as cheap as £150 (when I got mine btw), the situation is pretty much the same in Toys R' US and many other retailers (like HMV, Tesco, to a certain extent Argos, etc...). Gaming focused retailers like GAME do have Wii Us but the market penetration is very dry if you don't have your product every where like the PS4 and X1 currently do.

I think Nintendo is trying to make profits instead of trying to increase the user base and although those bundles don't seem that bad (if you weren't comparing them to those PS4/X1 bundles, but that's the main point of your post which I can't disagree with) I think it's safe to assume Nintendo is playing very safe in one of its weakest markets.
