There was a troll thread a while back asking when Wii U would cost $99 and the author thought 2014. Well I want to know when it will reach $199.99.

It has already happened, 5 days ago

UK price with VAT £149 before VAT £124.17*Current exchange rate= .................. $193.05

Have fun buying without the VAT in UK.

In some US states they don't pay Tax so when comparing prices you do it pre-tax then convert it to Dollars. Asda/Amazon got £124.17 when selling the Wii U the rest went to Uk Gov convert that to dollars and it has already been sold for the equivalent of $200.
