WiiU LMAO!
Nintendo LMAO...er!
I'd call it crap but I defended my PS3 purchase back in 2006 from that same kind of criticism so I'll refrain. Seriously though, if all Nintendo fans tout Nintendo's first party games as why they but Nintendo's consoles then why is lack of 3rd party support hindering WiiU sales?

Lack of first party support has been hindering sales. Only 2 first party titles released since launch. It's really not rocket science mate.

As for the cost of the GamePad I'd say Zero isn't too far off, I'd say it's more like $70 myself.

I think that's the final cost of the gamepad itself too. but IF WII U DIDN'T HAVE THE GAMEPAD, it would still have something like the pro controller/wiimote and nunchuck. if we consider the pro controller as costing $20, subtracting it from the gamepad price means it's only a $50 increase.
