episteme on 12 December 2014
Yeah, it's pretty terrible 
Smash Bros. week was the biggest since launch and higher than Black Friday week... That's really weird.
Sounds like supply issues during BF week. It was sold out at Walmart: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=194250&page=1 and amazon.com still doesn't have Wii U consoles in stock for $299.99. The trade-in value is only $5 lower than the X1 ACU/4 bundle, that's another indicator for low supplies at the moment.
The anectotal BF reports that I heard also said that they didn't see many Wii U consoles.
