What would you pay for the Wii U if it was 4 times as powerful?

But the thing is I wouldn't pay more than $200 for the Wii U as it exists. I would be far more interested in it if it were more powerful but neither option has been given by Nintendo, hence the reason why I'm not in this particular market.

From memory arn't you in NZ? therefore you already getting highly ripped of on console launches anyway.

Has the Wii even made it down to $200NZ yet?

 

Aus has improved slight compared to past gens.

Actually console prices are pretty good where I am and infact many of the costs are significantly lower. For instance the PS3 launched for $1199 whereas the PS2 launched for $1299 IIRC and the Wii U actually costs less than the Wii did at launch. I am/was far more interested in the Wii than I am with the Wii U. To compensate for this lack of interest it has to be significantly more powerful than it is or significantly cheaper. I use USD to simplify things as that is the standard pricing structure used here but what I would pay is essentially the converted USD equivalent so it is easier to just use USD so people understand.
