That's doesn't  make any sense that the wii u is more expensive to produce now than before as time pass ...as in all electronics as things get older the price decreases because the electronic equipment used becomes outdated or there is a better replacement ...example blu Ray is much cheaper now because the components are less expensive to produce  ....why do you think companies use  price cuts at certain times because production cost are lower the wii u cut it's price from 350 to 300 because production cost went down a little so it allowed them to cut the price and because they can make up the lost on  software ....you are forgetting console sales plays a small part in the bigger picture it's the software that matters ....the wii u can only have 6,000,000 consoles but if one console owner buys 4 or 5 pieces of software ....nintendo makes a profit ...


it does make sense. Nintendo went from producing 3m for its first quarter to 3m in its next 5. They werent profiting at the other price point and more production and with a 50 dollar cut, slower production, and weak game sales they mos likely arent profiting.
