Wii U Price Prediction/ release date / launch titles

Wii U Release Date (North America)- Sunday, September 16, 2012

*Nintendo has historically released its premier 1st part offerings on Sunday

*The spring release of the 3DS (post Christmas) was a huge test fail, where Nintendo divided its market up into 2 categories- early adopters/core gamers (spring) and fringe consumers/budget gamers (holiday/winter).

*The only reason the original wii was released in November was because both company's, Sony and Nintendo were afraid that if they released in the premier launch slot (September), the other would leap frog it's glory come holiday time. Obviously this shouldn't be the case in 2012.

Nintendo Wii U Launch Price w/1st party software pack in- 379.99

*The original price was scheduled to be 349.99, but they will need to offset the price drop of the Nintendo 3DS's 80.00 price drop with a 20.00 price adjustment

*Nintendo was more than likely aiming for a 100.00- 3-tiered price system to where they offered the Wii U for 349, 3DS for 249, and the original Wii and DS XL for 149.99
