Come to think of it, why hasn't Nintendo tried this yet with the Wii? $50 towards a Wii U if you trade in your Wii would be awesome! It'd be an upgrade to the library instead of a downgrade, a way to cut the Wii U to $250 at a time when they could use a price cut but can't afford one, and would serve another purpose by getting the word out that the Wii U is indeed a new console. The average consumer still doesn't always know that. What are you waiting for, Nintendo?!?

Probably because Nintendo would have a hard time reselling the Wiis. Not much demand for them when you can get a Wii U refurbished for just $100 more, with a free game.
