Seems to be about the cheapest you can get a brand new Wii U. It is the basic version with only 8GB of storage, but you can always plug in an extra USB stick for more space. Super Smash Brothers is still £43.99 on Amazon.
One per customer.
Edit - It appears this is now out of stock, apologies.

Picked up a Wii U premium with mario kart from Asda for £199 a couple of days ago - red stickered so store specific so didn't post but may be worth a try if you were after a 32gb version - long shot though

Yep, possibly. Although Wii U stock appears to be quite low, they already stopped production in Japan. See here.
They don't seem to be heavily discounting so it might be they don't actually have much stock left and are happy to let it go for full price.

Not sure, this will be arriving for xmas, never seen one in the wild :-). Shame really, as you say they do seem to have a really strong catalogue of games. It might not have had much in the way of third party support but the games which were released are highly rated.

Been after a box fresh Wii U for a month or so now after realising that the 3DS version of Mario Maker is going to be a massive let down. Is the only fundamental difference between this and the Black one, the HDD space?
Looks like it comes down to the sensor bar ( I still have one from my Wii ) and a few stands (and space obviously). I can live with that personally. You can get one from here.

Cheers both, think I might take the plunge (with the T-Shirt :smile:).
Always been suspicious of keeping consoles on their sides after my first and second PS2's died fairly quickly after being stored and played on their sides, so it'd be going flat anyway. Like you, I've got at least 3 sensor bars knocking around the house that I've collected over the years.
Only thing to do, is decide whether to wait and see if a good Premium deal is likely to drop during Black Friday.

Did you get it? Looks like it has gone out of stock...... I think you might be right though, they will probably do another good offer before xmas.

The one that got away - story of my life. Can't see it being a bad thing to be honest. I'm confident enough something will come up from somewhere before Christmas.

Yep I think you're right, I'll probably regret rushing into getting this one.... Tomorrow they'll probably discount the premium version. Hope you manage to catch any future deals.

I would hold off on a purchase till Black Friday at the very least. Wii U Premium has been this price before from several outlets

I thought the basic Wii U was stop manufactured in April(must be the left overs and now the premium, should see them coming down in price from the stores....
Nintendo nearly went broke, due to Wii U. They are not making any more flagship consoles, getting a partner Nvidia, they will be getting more software developers interested,
So,the latest Nvidia chipset pad with a gpu clocking boost from the docking station :smiley:
You do know Nintendo have more money in the console sector than Microsoft and Sony combined? That's why they can afford to make mistakes like the Wii U and still have money to make another 4 console generation failures.

£179 for a four year old console no longer in production, with less than half the power of its equally priced competition. And people wonder why Nintendo struggle :man:

Weird how these things have held their price at £180-£200.

Retailers don't want to sell it at loss but yet, in not reducing the price they're making it hard for anyone to buy these things since they're not worth the asking price.

I've got mine more than one year ago at £150 from Rakuten. How can this be a hot deal nowadays?
