Mario Kart and 3D Mario would be ideal I suppose.

This kinda reminds me of the 3DS plan o.o

Didnt they release 3D Land and MK7 in the same year?

I think that's exactly what Nintendo wants to do. "It worked for the 3DS, why not Wii U?" is what they might be thinking.

They didn't only have Mario Kart and 3D Land though ;o. Another 30-40% price cut combined with those games might do it 

I see no need for a price drop.

3DS released way over the price of previous nintendo handhelds.

$250 - $300 is always a good home console launch price.

I think WiiU's current sales should be some small hint of it being too expensive for most people. Don't get me wrong, games will surely boost it, but will it be a sustained and big enough of a boost without the price cut?

I agree price is a factor but obviously games and marketing are the bigger reasons. I hope it does get a price cut tho, id be super happy if I could pick up a Wii U with Pikmin 3+Wind Waker for $300 on black friday
