Why the hell does the Wii U cost so much then? Is it because of the game pad thing?

Yeap the game pad is suposed to cost over $150.

Actually, that is not true. The gamepad costs $85 to replace if it is lost or broken.

Today that is still an arm and a leg for a controller. This means Nintendo owners must treat their controllers like their baby.

I actually do lol. Mainly because of the cost, and that it would take a while to get a replacement. It does cost a lot, but the cost should go down over time.

Thanks for the info. When I get my Wii U I will need to take serious care of it now.
