I dont think they have big stock of unsold Wii U consoles, Wii U selling bad from start so definitely Nintendo didn't made huge stock of Wii U, and we already saw Japan had problems with Wii U stocks.

They don't need to have a massive inventory of them for it to hurt their financials.

150,000 unsold units for example x lets say $240 manufacturing cost/unit = $36 million loss.

Probably something Nintendo doesn't want to write off.

Yes, but they can always lower price to $250 or $200 (that is almost certain when NX arrives) and have much smaller loss. Like I wrote, Wii U is selling bad from start so  Nintendo buy time definitely tempted only needed stocks in order not having left stocks after NX launch, last 2 FY they basically sold Wii U units like they predict around 3.5m in year so they know how much Wii U consoles they still can sold.
