People are surprised Nintendo isn't in the race for marketshare anymore? At this point all Nintendo needs to do is actually make money off of the Wii U. That's the best they can do with such a toxic console.

Yes, but the problem is that they already cut the price.  It would be stupid to raise it just because it is now packed with a more desirable game and nothing else.  If it's the mega bundle we see in the UK, then it would make sense.  Consoles become cheaper over time and don't see price raises without added features (such as a PS3 with extra memory).  And that's true of even the most successful consoles.  Nintendo didn't say to themselves "hey this Wii is on fire, let's double the price and watch as people keep buying it anyway" even though that might have been true for the first year or so.
