logically this makes sense but it doesn't play out like this. profits are always best on launch day to the first week and gradually go down as you get closer to Christmas. by the time its almost Christmas the people that haven't already got one end up doing gift cards or going with alternative gifts. these are the people that can't afford to pay way over retail and that's why they held out so long.

in the case of the Wii U before these things hit retail they were going for about $490-$520 on eBay. many of them on launch day are going for $465 now so they've taken a hit in value.

things you don't get: the deluxe program where you get $6 coupon code off every digital game you buy for 2 years after the first game.

included copy of Nintendoland.

a decent amount of storage space. meaning now you don't have enough to hold many of the larger games on your console. Wii U disc go up to 25GBs in size.

stands for the console and the controller.

yup, i always sell them as soon as i get them, more shipments will be coming soon and especially with online retail being so hot as it is now compared to 05-06
