It's not dire, it's exciting! I'm thinking 8gig wipe out and 32gig price drop announcement at e3.


No, I'd say it's pretty dire for Nintendo.

Still, perhaps some quick, decisive action now, followed up with a barrage of quality software, will jumpstart the Wii U like it did the 3DS. Or perhaps it will work out like the PS3, where the flow is staunched but the bleeding just never seems to stop.


Yeah... as far as i can tell this is an oddly unprecedented move.

Console manufacturers usually just leave old models on the shelves.


It can't be that they don't have enough production....

It'd make me concerned if I already owned a Wii U Basic.

I think they are planning to kick off a major marketing push at e3.  That marketing material will probably not include the basic but probably will include a white and black deluxe.  Since this could be kicking off right away, I think they want to avoid consumer confusion.
