| Slarvax said: Maybe, but since Splatoon became such a big hit in Japan, it might be the best for Nintendo to make a bundle for the holidays. And, I don't remember how many, but in 2013 bundles were what helped the Wii U sell a lot in the latter part of the year.

They had 2 similar bundles in Japan in the holiday of 2013. One was black and the other was white.
The white bundle (32,800 yen) had: matching Wii Remote Plus, 30 days of Nintendo x Joysound Wii Karaoke U service and digital copies of New Super Mario Bros. U and Wii Party U.
The black bundle had all of that plus a copy of Wii Fit U and a Fit Meter for about 2,000 yen more.
They honestly had incredible value, and it's no wonder sales shot up during the holidays because of it. The best they could do now is have a similar limited Splatoon promotional bundle at the same price as the lower-end Wii Party U bundle, and have it come with a Wiimote, a copy of Mario Kart 8 and maybe a $10-15 eShop card or something. Then you'd have the Super Mario Maker bundle as the standard for people who want that game more, and the Genei Ibun Roku #FE bundle later in the year to appeal to the RPG crowd. Sadly, I don't think this will happen, but they need to find a way to match the PS4 price cut.
