What... the HELL... is WRONG with you people?
$500 for the Wii U?... $600 Wii U??... have you all gone INSANE?!?
So a console using modified off-the-shelf parts for the main hardware, no Blu-Ray or expensive proprietary media format, and a controller that is essentially a giant Wiimote with a touch screen that merely streams the video off the console rather than having its own built-in CPU/GPU combo is going to cost as much as the PS3 did at launch with it's bleeding edge technology?
If Nintendo release the Wii U for anything higher than $350 it'll be D.O.A. Even $399 is looking more and more like a stretch with the inevitable PS360 price drops later this year ahead of the Wii U's launch. No way Nintendo puts out a new console that is closer in specs to the current gen than the upcoming next gen consoles at double the price of the current gen systems.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
