The "nuclear option"
- Make the gamepad optional. Remove it from the standard Wii U SKU.
- $199.99 Wii U w/NSMBU and Wii Sports Club (free tennis and bowling, you pay for other sports) bundled. 1 Wiimote + 1 Pro Controller.
- Launch it alongside Mario Kart 8 in April.
- Nintendo Land 2 w/all the old attractions + a few new ones (Wave Race, Pilotwings, and Kid Icarus plz) comes bundled with the tablet controller separately for $89.99. Existing Wii U owners get Nintendo Land 2 for free as a thank you via the eShop.
- Bend a little to fan demands and give them the dark, badass Zelda game they want. When a system is going this badly, game developer fancies and desires need to take a bit of a backseat. Start building hype by unveiling the game live on prime time US television at the VGX awards.
