What we need in redesign:

1. Quietter consoles. 
2. Bigger harddrive.
3. WiiU without gamepad just a WiiU Controller Pro.
4. WiiU without the power brick. 
5. Blu-ray video support. Not sure if this is possible and still run the WiiU optical disc.
6. Increase Ram and processor, Not for games performance but faster loading menu and load times.
7. Cost need to be under $250.00.
8. Color, I loved my Platinum colored Gamecube. 

Platinum color WiiU for $250 featuring wisper quiet console with faster loadings time, 250 GB HD and WiiU controller Pro (gamepad sold separately). 

Here's some more holes I am going to poke into this post.

Points 2, 3, and 5: As we already know, the Gamepad is required for interface and features throughout the Wii U's game library, OS, and core software (like the Miiverse). So excluding it creagtes a situation where users will have to buy it separately anyway, otherwise they're going to have a very poor experience. What would be the purpose of this? I can only see it being for cost cutting, which you indicate below as well.

Then why add on features like Blu-Ray playback that will jack up the price. And unnecessary harddrive expansions that can already be purchased separately?

 

Points 1 and 4: You said it shouldn't come with the power brick? What do you mean? Should users have to buy the power brick separately in order to turn their console on? Because that would be as stupid as releasing it without the Gamepad. You also mention a quieter console, the console already makes no sound noticible sound after the first 5 seconds of turning it on; you would need to put your ear right up to it. If it was redesigned so that the brick components are retained in the console , then the console would require a stronger, and consequently, more active and louder fan system. Although point 1 is BS, if you are having noise issues, then it's probably because your Wii U is broken.
