The idea that Wii U isn't already priced right, is kind of absurd.

This has been repeated many times over in various threads, but Wii U offers an awful lot of value for the money. It's $100-200 cheaper than the competition, the only next gen system with (real) backwards compatibility, the only next gen system with free online, the eShop has a massive queue of digital content coming (including GBA and DS games), and it's the only console which has a pack in game. Plus in spite of the hate it gets (mostly from people who've never even really used it), the Gamepad rocks as a controller, with all of it's features. And even if it isn't your "thing", you've got Wiimote and Classic Controller options.

I really just don't think, especially at this moment in time, that either of the other consoles offers the total amount of variety and value that Wii U does. So no, it doesn't need a price drop. I'm sure it'll get one in 2015, and that's fine, expected even. But 2014 really doesn't need one.



Perceived value bro, perceived value!
