See my last response to point 2. More of the same is not gonna do anything. How many times must it be said for you to understand! The Wii U has already gotten games, already gotten price cuts, already gotten new bundles, etc, and is still selling worse than Gamecube. Speaking of which, the Gamecube also had Mario Kart, Metroid, Animal Crossing, Zelda, price cuts, bundles, etc., yet still sold worse than it's predecessor the N64, who with most of those same games still sold worse than the SNES, which sold worse than the NES! Nintendo consoles selling worse than their predecessor has always been the trend sadly.
The Wii managed to become an exception to this trend because it did something different, being Motion Controls + the Wii ___ series, though those have run their course. The only thing outside the norm you've brought up is a mainline home console Pokemon game, but the creators have said they're sticking to handhelds, which you know is true after they still didn't make one even though the GC coulda used it.
Btw, I think it'd be stupid of them not to do another price cut this year to go along with the biggest game the system will ever get, and Monolith's X is slated to release this year, not that the game will have any impact on long term HW sales, same with pretty much all games at this point really. :L
