They were selling basic model at $300 with loose, hardly ditching gamepad would cut they expances for $100-150, but they could seel it around $250 with bundled game insted of $350 and Wii U would done definitely better.

The system was too complex from the start involving too many companies (Intel + AMD)  and technologies (wireless screen transfer). A simple box for a lower price could have done better (at least gamcube level sales).

Add to that very negative exchange rate back then that was again cost and selling price of Wii U. Everything was against Wii U. :)
