Wii U to be priced at $299?

[glimmer_of_hope]

I like the price, it is a day 1 buy for me regardless. I also think this might be a "slip" from Nintendo.
Think of it as a slap to the face to Pachter, who just said a few weeks ago that Nintendo will be doomed if Wii U isn't priced at $249. Nintendo is like "oh really?"
Plus it has done wonders for the press, since Pachters comments their was nothing but that floating around the interwebs, but now all I see is the price and how peeps are impressed.
Kind of bizarre how there is a reliable source of the Wii U price after CabbagePach's comments!
