One for the WiiU:

WiiU - 299.99 (The Zelda Bundle)

USB HD 3TB (Seagate, its USB 3.0 but its 2.0bc with an ac adapter) - $140 (newegg)

Wii U can only take up to 2TB, and on Amazon that's $100.

Two games - $120 (At the maximum price because they vary, and Ubisoft loves digital sales.)

Pro Controler - $50.00(Gamestop)

Wiimote and numchuck - $55.00(gamestop)

I think that it should be noted that because of backwards compatability, most, if not all, people will already have this.

Wii U USB Charge Cable - $10.00 (gamestop)

That comes with the Pro controller, so I don't know what this does.

Sub Total - $675 (The totals are round up)

Sales Tax (6%) - $41

Grand Total - $716

 

The Hard Drive, charge cable and one of the two controller options are optional so here it is without the opitional items. (I removed the pro controller)

I would remove the Wii Remote + Nunchuck instead, considering that although they work, the main additional controller for the Wii U is the pro controller.

Sub Total - $470.00

Sales Tax (6%) - $29.00

Grand Total - $499.00

So this set up ends with Three retail games.


FIxed. Comments in BOLD. I'd also note that because of the Wind Waker bundle, a lot of people just won't be purchasing two more games on top of that. Rather, they'll purchase just one. In the likely event that that happens, here's the price with only one purchased game (since it already comes with one):

Sub Total - $410.00

Sales Tax (6%) - $24.60

Grand Total - $434.60

So this setup ends with 2 retail games like the competitors.


I was being purposly expensive, the WiiU can use a 3TB HD but only formats it to 2TB. (This was added with the December 2012 OS patch.)

The USB Charge cable is for the WiiU GamePad it is more of a convience thing, then actually needed because the GamePad comes with an AC adapter. Again as I said I was being purposly expensive for those who like to say what about this to get a "complete" gameplay experience.
