I was browsing the gamestop website when I found a listing for the price of the Assassin's Creed III Wii U game, and it said $99.99, and I'm sure this is just Gamestop putting the price ahead because they don't know the exact price, but that implies that it might not be a typical $59.99 game. What are the odds that the tech in Wii U will make the games cost more?

Okay, it wasn't just the one game either, and this makes me even more suspicious, though it's probably nothing.

wii U games will be that expensive? NO WAY U have to be kidding.. Maybe they are collector editions with dolls and stuff? Or the price is just hypothetical..

Chill out people. It's all just place holder numbers. Game prices will be around $60.

^This, I know someone who works at gamestop and she said that all of this is just placeholders until they receive official pricing.

Maybe Nintendo will stay true to the $50 that Wii games cost and carry it over to the Wii U :D :D :D :D

Those are just place holder prices and not final by any means. Nintendo hasn't finalised any pricing yet.

Here is a link to the system and games for preorder at UK retailer Shop To. The system price is definitely a place holder and game prices whilst not definite are probably fairly realistic.

Well you sounded kinda serious :P
That and I'm pretty sure Orion was serious, but idk. Kinda hard to get internet sarcasm.
