The crazy part is, w/MK8 you not only get a free full game to DL , but that also counts toward your digital deluxe promo https://p.nintendo.net/deluxe/index.do . I received the full 499 pts for WWHD, enough to redeem another $5 code for eshop. So basically its MK8 + free game for $43.

IF you can't tell from the bundling, free game offers, or heavy advertisements.... MK8 is Nintendo's key to creating sustained sales in WiiU. These actions are being done instead of dropping the WiiU's price.

It also makes a lot more sense. Use a high profile, mass market game, loved by everyone to force the Wii down your throat. Far more effective than a loss leading $50 price drop on the system.
