WOW this collection is going to be worth so much money that it's not even funny. Keep them sealed.

When though? If you think about it the Wii-U's software isn't going to be rare for at least the next 10 years, at which point will Nintendo still be offering the ability to download the patch software required for them to run or will they roll out a Wii-U update towards the end of its life which removes this requirement, keep in mind that a Wii-U game must get a security patch update to align it to the System software in place on the console, if they don't like up the game isn't booting, without the PS4/X1/X360 option of declining the update and starting the game anyway.

Just that if that system is left in place on the Wii-U after Nintendo puts it to rest it will not be a system that has any retro following in the future, unless there is a retro group for Nintendo based Doorstops.

I don't think it would take long. Let's keep in mind that having every first party Wii U game, sealed for that matter. Would be worth a lot just a year or two down the road. Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't sealed Dreamcast games worth a fair bit? There are some sealed Game Cube and Wii games that are already worth a fair bit. Same goes for some 360 and PS3 collectors editions. A Mass Effect collectors edition goes for a lot. I've seen some bided at around $1300 a few years back. Right now it seems to be lower, much lower. The first Mass Effect collectors edition was quite hard to find if I remember correctly.

There's 3 different limited editions for "The Last Story" on the Wii. The standard limited edition sealed is going for $100-150. The other limited edition is going for going for $175-300. The story book edition, which I have. Is going for $140-175 opened. I can't seem to find a price for a sealed copy, but I'd imagine it's the most expensive one.  It doesn't have the steel book, but it's by far the sexiest looking one with the packaging for the game being a book housing the goodies and not some regular box holding the steelbook game and the soundtrack and artbook.

The Metroid Prime Trilogy is a good $120 sealed :)
