For me personally: 99 €. Can't speak for anybody else. But I really have absolutely no interest in Wii U. But for a hundred bucks I'd pick it up anyway.

I got one for my friend at a pawnshop for 165$ the deluxe one

200. I'm not gonna even think about it until it reaches this price. This hardware simply isn't worth more.



Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!

My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/

My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.

In the UK I think a Mario Kart bundle for somewhere around £139-149 would do well. This is probably somewhere around the true break even price of wii u. If you don't factor in R&D costs.

I don't think there are many people left that are fooled by the wii u performance level and really it should sell at a similar price to Xbox 360 and PS3.



If it's 250 this holiday with 3DW, MK, Smash, Pikmin, DK, and hopefully a surprise or two, then I think it will be very desirable.

$150-250.



Well $199 didn't work so either $149 or less AND bundled with NSMBU.



It's not the price of the consoles but the games. I go on amazon and I'm seeing WiiU launch games still going for launch price or at least more than half. That's a bit much for over a year old games.

Then I'm looking at Bioshock infinite which isn't even a year old and got critical acclaim lying in the bargain bin. Hell even top recent games like TLOU and GTA5 dropped the price by 30%.
I already dread the day when I'm getting a WiiU this year and looking for older games to play.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I personally think that the Wii U is worth its current price, but right now, I really only have time for 1 home console. If I had a bit more gaming time, I would pick up a Wii U now, but I might as well wait until I have a decent amount of time to play it, and by then, it might be cheaper.



For me - 100$. Hell give me 50$ and a PS4 game and you have sold a console Nintendo!



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!
