Wii U. I thought it was cheap?

Consumers said the same thing when they looked at the xbox subscription price tag.
" If you were to choose the 4GB version with Kinect (or 250GB without Kinect) bundle, you will be paying a total of $458.76 when your contract is finished"
Plus one game 60$, plus 1 controller 60$: 578$ plus tax

At least you get Live Gold subscription in the price. 

I have just found out I get no multiplayer on Wii U at launch now. WTF is going on?
