The peripherals, however, will be insanely expensive, I shudder at the thought of the prices of controllers... Then again, according to most Wii fans, price doesn't matter so the Wii U should kill everything, even at 600$ launch price.  |
I'm still not convinced the controllers will be nearly as expensive as people are predicting ... After all, a company has already announced that they're working on a $35 tablet for India and believe they can get the manufacturing costs down to under $10. Certainly, this will not be a good tablet but it should be a sign that the Wii U controller probably won't be sold for over $100; and, I would be betting on $80 to $100 with a bundled game like Wii Play.
