$140 plus tax. They should have created a bluetooth Wiimote + Nunchuck set and use those $140 to future proof the console.

$140 retail price.

Likely 100% mark-up at least as that's the common route with accessories.

So actual cost is somewhere around $80, which fits the cost in reports for Nintendo warranty replacements that stated something like $85.
