What's the big deal? I bought my Wii U Premium for £349.99 on launch day and upon opening it, clearly got a gimped battery which barely managed 2 hours of game time without needing charging and I've had to pay a further £25 for the privelage of having a moderately acceptable battery life which is now included as standard apparently with the newer Wii U systems (traditionally Nintendo reduced functionality rather than improved it).
