Nintendo won’t sell the Wii U at a loss

Not surprising. I expect to see it at $250-$300, or £199-£239 in the grand scheme of things; bundled with NintendoLand.

I highly doubt it'd be $250 inc Nintendoland.

 

Due to inflation, $250 at the launch of the Wii represents somewhere around $280+ today. A $250 Wii U would be cheaper than a $250 Wii.

 

The Wii U is also more powerful than the Wii, even taking into account the later launch date, and it also includes a tablet controller - much more expensive than a wiimote. The storage space is much higher, increasing much faster than Moore's Law suggests flash drives should increase by.

 

$300 minimum imo, potentially $350.
