This is the repair cost. It's likely it'll be cheaper once they make it so you can buy individual GamePads.

Its really not that much money. I would buy one straight away if we could get them here in AUS and if there was a practical use in having 2.

$140? My estimated retail price was $149.99. I was close!
Who on Earth would think that something like the GamePad would only cost $80? Maybe at some point down the road, but not right now.

That is quite a bit. But that amount of money still wouldn't stop from buying a second one... If there is any game that uses two.
Bleh eh eh.

That's not the set price... That is a replacement cost... It will drop once real price is released. I'm saying 99. And that info won't officialy be released until mid to late march infor will be in regards to update that's coming out and the update will probably include SNES and nes play over pad two player. Basically to pads two players and split screen for other two
There also may be a game update for Mario to allow two players to use a pad

you guys most not know about cars.
Your get more money parting them out then a whole
But yea they already said that the gamepad was the bulk of the wii u price. And that price isnt that bad.
$60 for a ps3 controller
$50 for an xbox 360
$40 for a wii mote
so $140 for a gamepad that has a touch screen i dont think is a bad price.
Im sure they will drop it down to $120 when 2 player gamepad games come out.
