What I'd do:
1. Add Nintendo Land to the Basic bundle. No price change or anything.
2. Replace Nintendo Land in Premium bundle with option of one of four titles: New Super Mario Bros U, Sonic Lost World, Super Mario 3D World, Wii Fit U (White Premium).
3. Additionally, include a free download with the Premium bundle, up to a certain value.
4. Arrange a special deal with Activision whereby CoD:Ghosts for Wii U is discounted during 2013, so that it's cheap enough on the eShop for people to get it as their free download. Perhaps have the same deal for a few other major titles.
Basically, the goal is to appeal as broadly as possible, while upping value rather than dropping price. If they give the Wii U a price cut now, it risks being seen as a last-gen system by people. If they wait until 2014 to drop prices, it will look like aggressive competition in the current gen. By upping the value instead, it's seen as a great deal to get a current-gen game (note: "current-gen", here, refers to the Wii U, PS4, XBO - I don't mind if some continue to call it "next-gen" for the next five months, but I expect everyone to avoid doing what they did last gen, with the whole "let's still call PS3 and 360 'next-gen' even though it's been out for four years" stupidity).
