Also compering the price of Japan and Europe is very ambiguous because everything is more expensive there compare to the U.S. If Gamepad cost $150 in Europe then I can definitely see the controller in the U.S costing as low as $100 (yes a $50 difference is extremely possible between both) |
You don't understand... there is no GamePad being sell in US... you have only unique options that is the replace per $85 directly with Nintendo... you give to them the old gamepad and they give you a new per $85.
Nintendo itself said the GamePad is expensive to manufacture.
