The only reason they bundled WSR was because they wanted motion-plus packaged. Nintendo must have a ton of motion plus games coming next year to be able to sacrifice the profits WSR would have made as a stand-alone product.
Nevertheless, I don't think they'll want to sacrifice the profits of Wii Party as well. They might bundle it with the pink/blue remote (as they did in Japan), but I'm very skeptical that they will change the current bundle that they have right now.
As for cutting the price further, I'm very wary of it. They need to maintain a healthy profit on the Wii and cutting the price too low may cause them to run into limited stock issues. Even the price cut back in October of last year seemed to be too hastily decided as they were then selling out in December, January, and February.
The price should remain at 200 for now, with perhaps special bundle deals being proposed by retailers (as this is what happened last season). I can also imagine them taking out Wii Sports Resort (but keeping motion plus) and subtracting the price to $160.
