Rumor: OG 3DS getting price drop to $139 in 2 weeks; Blue 3DS XL w/ Mario Kart 7 for $199 coming (UPDATE: May just be discount?)

I don't believe it. They already had a big price cut a year or so ago, and they need 3DS profits to compensate for Wii U loses.

There is not really much of a Wii U loss though. Wii U + one game gets them into profit zone. I am sure everyone will be picking at least one game with a new console. No?

I was also thinking about marketing and R&D costs.
