They're basically demanding a price drop.

As they should. A $199.99 Wii-U at this point would be like sprinkling magic pixie dust on the thing. 

That would also sell the console at a loss again. Wait until the console is selling at a greater profit for this wish. $249.99 is more reasonable of a drop, but 100 off is rediculous, hell just buy a refurb from Nintendo with the same warrenty for 200 if you are that cheap

Every Nintendo console with the exception of Wii was $199.99 or less. It's not really that crazy. Yamauchi believed that a software was useless unless you have consoles to play it on. This is why Nintendo use to price their consoles so low. Iwata comes in, screws the pooch on the 3DS and Wii-U price points, and bam...insta slump.

Nintendo needs to keep prices in the sub $200.00 imo.
