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. 

No it wouldn't be very smart or at all realistic. The obvious reason is that the Wii U OS requires the Gamepad. Every game (except Donkey Kong TF) uses the Gamepad, and wouldn't work without it. Then there is the Miiverse which is integrated throughout several games, including all of Nintendo's gsoftware, which requires a tablet interface to be functional.

I don't think anyone wouldn't feel ripped off by getting a fake Wii U that lacks an OS and doesn't work with any of the games.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

No gamepad, no Wii U

Improve gamepad battery life and give us AT LEAST 250gb internal storage (preferably 500gb). 32gb? In 2014? Are you fucking shitting me? Even Vita's max storage can double that and thats a handheld...

You're wrong. The Vita has no internal storage. You have to buy external memory cards for it, and 64GB of Vita storage costs significantly more than 2 Terrabytes of Wii U storage.

A Paper Mario game for the Wii U done in the style of TTYD! I would freak out...............in a good way!

The only real "bombs" that would genuinely surprise people and have an impact are Pokemon MMO and N7.

The big difference being NIntendo doesn't force you to install games. A 500gb hdd in a PS4 is probably more an issue then a 32gb Wii U.  In particular with 3rd party devs releasing incomplete games that require huge patches that conveniently vanish so you are focred to upgrade to their next installment of game.



 

 

All they need to do to boost sales is get Monolith Soft( with support from Game Freak) after X is released is to work on an open world Pokémon RPG witch is compatible with whatever the latest main series Pokémon 3ds games are at the time of release.



Not while Iwata is in charge. That would make sense OP.



 

Drop the gimmick and the price, I like it. That being said, that's way too little storage for a modern console.
