Wii U isn't that overpriced at all, when you stop to consider that for the price you get:
Free online for ALL games.
Full 100% backward compatibility with all Wii games and most Wii peripherals.
The ability to transfer your WiiWare and VC games to Wii U.
A robust and continually growing eShop, with a ton of great digital content.
A growing and often-but-not-always fun and helpful Miiverse community.
And most importantly, a pretty great retail game library, even without many new third party releases.
Wii U, I would argue, still has the most bang for the buck right now, and the best selection of retail games out right now of any new console, as well as an eShop service with more and more and more digital games coming out for it and being announced in development for it every week. And considering next year they're adding Zelda, Xenoblade, Yoshi, Kirby, Devil's Third, Star Fox, etc. to the game lineup, that situation is only going to improve.
I also would be shocked if Nintendo didn't drop the price again in 2015. I'm fairly confident they will.
