My GF is currently on her lunch break, breaking her neck trying to buy a Wii U for her 7 year old son before they sell out. "It comes with TWO games for $299!", she said. Nothing I say will convince her that this is not some great deal that she has to act on right this minute. Apparently, she knows something we don't.

For serious?

Dead serious.  I'm trying to tell her that video games are "my thing" but she is convinced that this is some sort of huge deal.  I told her that I got my Wii U last year when it first came out and it didn't even sell out then!  I said everybody is going to be trying to buy the PS4 and Xbox One so there will be plenty of Wii U's to go around.  Doesn't matter.  She's heading to Toys R Us now to get one.

Her kid loved Lego City Undercover on my Wii U and she liked TVii (The Walking Dead) so she wants a Wii U.  I just don't understand the sense of urgency she's displaying right now.

Cool, it would be great if the new bundles and price do grab casual interest.
