Nintendo will not drop the price of the Wii U to $250. Not until Q3/Q4 2014. A realistic price drop would be $269 (if Basic Set still exists) and probably $319 (for Deluxe Set). I hope that by 2015, they introduce brand new, higher quality gamepads. Probably with at least 2 MP cameras (front and back sides), AM OLED screen (Multi-touch), 3x the range distance from console, and maybe better stereo speakers. Some analog triggers and shoulder buttons would be nice too. I gave these ideas to Reggie @ E3. He seemed interested in what I was telling him. He told me that they would "have to have a big-enough installed base" and "make it cheap enough to keep the price balanced with potential future reconfigured Wii U SKUs." Idk what he means by "reconfigured". Maybe addition of USB 3.0? Ethernet port? Internal HDD? Possibly even the removal of Wii backwards compatibility? Who knows. Only time will tell..

I see those 2 games selling about 1-1.5 million, the 3 million was more directed to Sonic/Kirby/Yoshi.

Also note how I used the word potential, meaning there not guaranteed to sell that much but if marketed correctly could pass 1 million. Bayonetta 2 and X are already more marketed than I ever remember Xenoblad and the first Bayonetta getting. Xenoblade released in the US after Wii was already pretty much dead and was only available at Gamestop for a limited time.

Zelda is confirmed for a 2014. Quite possibly 2015. Mr. Aonuma said in a Japanese interview that this game is going to be the biggest game Nintendo have ever created in terms of memory size and money, that the team might actually have to consider using a dual-layered 50GB disc to fit the game in one disc. It's going to be pushing the graphical capabilities of the console to its limit with 50GB of disc memory like Uncharted 3 and The Last of Us did with PS3. 

A $100 price cut isnt out of the question since it will be about 18 months since launch. A $30 cut would be absolutely pointless

You have missed out the inevitable slew of 2D platformers.

I listed Yoshi, Sonic and possibly Kirby, those are all platformers.

i actually do think they have a shot.  There's 3-4million wii-u gamers wanting games, and not alot to choose from.  I'd say these titles could possibly hit those numbers.

the two games i want and i need are x and zelda-u. The rest i really dont care that much. I played xenoblade till my fingers bleed, and a combination of xenogears and xenoblade bring tears to my eyes. A new zelda with hd quality, oh man, I cant wait. Thats the reason i want a wii-u. Hopefully both in 2014.

I almost threw up.
