My only problem is that it will drive up the cost of the console like the Controller Tablet does for the Wii U it alone costs about 170$.

No it won't, at least not by much.
Wii U pad costs nowhere near $170 btw


If you want to buy a gamepad alone it will retail at 175$ so far its only be available at retail in japan.

It won't actually cost that much to make. That's pure profit.

But that's how much a consumer pays for it and thats what we are so im right when i say that it costs about 170$.

Ok, point me to a store selling this controller for that much, then I'll believe you.


http://www.techradar.com/us/news/gaming/consoles/nintendo-wont-sell-standalone-wii-u-gamepads-unless-you-break-yours-1098340  Quote from article "Nintendo hasn't confirmed what it will charge for replacement GamePads, but the standalone tablet controllers will cost ¥13,400 in Japan, or around $172 (£106)." Like i said as of right now they only way to buy a standalone Wii U gaming tablet is in Japan.I'm not sure if Japanese consumors have to buy the Tablet straight from nintendo or if they are avialable to buy them Gaming Stores.And i can't point you to a store that sells wii u tablets as a standalone because i don't live in japan.
