Well DUH.

It has no gamez.

Well not necessarily. It could have in theory coasted on its launch lineup and Mario U for a year. Much like how PS3 coasted until MGS4 in 2008 and sold on brand name alone.

except for Resistance, Ratchet and Clank, Heavenly Sword, Warhawk, and Uncharted.  oh and free online

Then cut the price more to get rid of your extra stock. Your space and money could be better invested in something which actually, you know, sells.

What? Pricecut will work, when they cut the price to the level it is perceived to be.

People keep saying no games.....It has games!!! The console is just not as appealing as the Wii was.

if there is no games, price cut won't work. for long. maybe a month.

Games are more important than price cut atm. 

Ports don't count as most people would have them on ps360 so no exclusive incensitve to buy a Wii U.

Ports will work just fine, if the price is lower than ps360.

And why would it be lower when it is a new system?

There were also some games that were marketed for launch and could not be found like Bayonetta 2, Rayman, and Wii Fit U.

Uhh, you are the one who is claiming that pricecuts would not work. Take a guess...

 

Nevermind, I'll help you out. Because the system is not selling at the current price. Oh my god. If it were cheaper than ps360 as in 99$ cheap, it would sell a lot. Unbelievable, right?
