Forums - Nintendo Discussion - $250 Mario Kart 8 Wii U Bundle. Will It Happen!? <(^_^<)

I definitely feel they need to do this if they're still trying to have the Wii U outsell the Gamecube. It's clear that the current bundled game options aren't getting the job done as the Wii U is selling just as badly as last year. Afterall, WWHD is a 10 year old game, and before it was bundled, NSMBU was already released a year ago, and NSMB2 came a few months before that. So a new game bundle is needed, and what better than possibly the biggest game the Wii U will ever get, being Mario Kart 8. As for the $50 drop, let's face it, the first price cut didn't change anything. The Wii U's pricing went from $300-$350 to $300. Adds value sure, but the price remains the same, so I doubt many even noticed. Another price cut is needed, plus it's inevitable anyway, and again, what better time to do it than with the Wii U's biggest game!

Game bundle? Sure!
50$ price cut? Naah...



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

A Mario Kart 8 bundle would make  Wii U sales skyrocket by 900000000000% and that's why Nintendo won't release a bundle like that one.

When I'm on my 3DS I can't make Kirby in mah regular post, so that's why I always just put him in the OP!

altho it would be awesome i would be pissed because MK8 is why i bought my wiiU bundle with zelda lol



I can't see this happening. Yes, hardware sales are important, but not losing money is more important.

Wobuffet! They're already losing money, and Iwata has said that price cuts aren't the solution.
