This pretty much proves that the reason the console is still so expensive is the controller...

If you change the game pad for the pro controller the console will be like $200-$150 right now, or at least official Nintendo price.

Yeap a 199$ Wii U would probably be easily done with a pro controller... a shame nintendo didnt go that route.
