Wait. I thought the Wii U was supposed to be priced well.

Now The top model which comes with only 32 gb HDD. ( WTF? 32 gb )

Is 309.99 GBP. No games.

An extra controller is 109.99 GBP

And a game is 49.99 GBP. 

Now for me to buy a Wii U which I was considering at Crimbo with 2 controllers and 1 game is 469.97GBP ( About $752 US ).

WTF?????

I would have at least expected 1TB HDD and a bundle for around 350 GBP. Not Approaching PS3 launch price in my country with a controller and game. I could get a PS3 on launch day with an extra controller and game for 499 GBP in 2006. 

This is putting me right off. To have 4 Wii U controllers it will cost me 329.97 GBP on top of the original Console price.

 

DISGUSTING.

Actually its £283.49 with Nintendo Land here http://www.sainsburysentertainment.co.uk/en/Games/Wii-U/Nintendo-Wii-U-32Gb-HDD-Premium-Pack-Console-Plus-Nintendo-Land-Black/product.html?med=aff&product=E11134256&esrc=cj&AID=1546795

Using this code:

Games priced at £49.99 are clearly placeholder prices (Such as before Vita lauch) Most will be £39.99. 

Yes it still is priced incorrectly when shown against US prices, but as with Vita the Price will decrease before Launch. There is just too much competition for that not too happen.
