This is what Nintendo has always done really save for Wii.
NES was a super computer...by 1982 standards when it came out in 1985.
SNES was a super computer...by 1989 standards when it came out in 1991.
N64 was a super computer...by 1994 standards when it came out in 1996.
GC was a super computer...by 1999 standards when it came out in 2001.
Wii was a super computer...by 2000 standards when it came out in 2006.
Wii U is a super computer...by say, 2009 standards when it comes out in 2012.
Nintendo's model assumes profitable hw + mass consumer adoption + strong internal games = massive profit. Wii came at the most difficult time in Nintendo's history so they spent less on hw than usual

Wrong! Wii U is a super Computer by 2007 standards. I could build you a PC now for $400 that easily performs better than the Wii U.

You're wrong. OK, your task is to build a computer for 400 dollars, that can play modern games at 1080p, with at least 30 fps on high and stream the game to a second monitor. I doubt for 400 dollars that you can do it. Oh and its power draw has to be under 90 watts.

ok but only if i get the super discounts and i get to sell at a loss like consoles are supposed to be
core i3 -$90
mobo-$80
6850 gfx card- $150
4gb of ram-$20
PSU-$50

What about the HDD and the case? Or is a big fast HDD not required for this "super computer"?
I have a HD6800 card and no way that would run on 90 watts. AMD recommend a 500w PSU or something like that.
I paid half that total alone for my mainboard.
