Welcome to the Wii U forums. If you need anything, just ask a guide or Twilight Sparkle of AMAC.

My guess is $350-400.

I'm thinking $399.99.

If it's over $10, I'm not going to buy it at launch day.

I don't think it will ever go $10 or under .:P

Don't worry Waller, Gamecube might be wrong, just wait for around 2-5 years and find it on a garage sale. : )

Oh, and i'm thinking $249.99-$299.99

$350 (U.S.) sounds about right. I really hope they can hit the $299.99 price mark tho. I know that would make ME feel better.

okay for people in UK XD I think its £200 atleast because the home consoles always get higher.
remember when the Wii was coming out and we were like oh its gonna be like £300? well it came out £180 so i think its gonna be £200-£210

I would make a guess at £200-£230 in England. They arent going to overprice again after what happened with 3DS.

They're boasting that the Wii-U will surpass the PS3 and X-box 360 (which it should sorry getting off topic)... Anyways ^_^ I would say that they will probably price it at $300-400 that new controller looks like it would cost anywhere from $50-100 on its own. But I'm a total Nintendo fan (Willing to fight over it Just kidding... oops getting off topic again...) I'll probably buy it at whatever price range they set it at. I just hope it come in different colors other than white... A nice metallic blue with a Lagicrus on the side. :ph34r:

If we go according the rumors based on my own estimates Nintendo should be able to manufacture the Wii U even if the chipset is on the high end of the previous rumors for $250-290 dollars US. $299.99 looks to be completely within the realm of possibility even with profit at the beginning. The issue is that some rumors and speculation I've read at Neogaf would mean that the Wii U is going to be noticeable more expensive than the previous GPU rumors would paint it. Still I doubt it will be more expensive than $349.99 US.

who's actually getting it at day 1?? Considering that its gonna be about £250 - £300 I'll probally be getting it a few weeks after release, since I get about £15 a week from my paperrounds and its like... 8 months or so away, I'm gonna be a few quid short :(

8 months = 32 weeks. 32 * 15 = 480.
You should be fine :P

Get one from a thrift store. Much cheaper, and most often times, you can return it if there's something wrong with it.

You haven't responded on your topic about that. I agree with Gamecollector check out the thrift store's in your area and pick the ones that look the best to you and you could post them on your topic.

RIght now I would probably save up to $500 at least for the Wii U. If it is cheaper than I will be able to get myself some games.
