Now that the Vita had a price drop, will the Wii U still be able to catch it this year?

I think the Wii U will explode this christmas. People are underestimating the fact that the system is cheaper and will have quality software out. Its just a shame Mario Kart wont be out aswell.

I do think Nintendo needs to slash the price, even if only by 20 euros or something, just to raise awareness.

I think they should hold off on cutting pricd for now, instead focus on providing more value. Phase out Basic, Deluxe-$299, Wind Waker-$349. Plus this holiday should see some nice sales/bundles. Something like Deluxe-$249 or Deluxe with 2-3 games for $299. Save the price cut for April to coincide with Mario Kart and beginning of fiscal year.

I think they need to be at least 100 euros below the PS4. Because if you buy a Wii U 350, with 50 more you can get a PS4. With that said, the software offering on Wii U this christmas is alot more appealing in general than the other two systems.
