Wii U Deluxe Set Price Cut Announced

Nintendo’s current position in the home console market is not exactly an encouraging one, as they have certainly fallen behind Sony and Microsoft in the graphical stakes, where their Wii U has not managed to light up the imagination of the masses in the manner that Nintendo would have wanted. From September 20th onwards, it seems that Nintendo will be rolling out a Deluxe version of the Wii U system that will be accompanied by a price cut by $50, which means that the Wii U Deluxe Set will now cost $299.99 a pop instead of $349.99 previously.

This new price point would make the entry into the next generation gaming console market even easier for the masses, not to mention introducing even greater value to the masses. Not only that, the Wii U is starting to have a stronger lineup of Wii U games that will comprise of Pikmin 3, The Wonderful 101, EarthBound, New Super Luigi U, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, Super Mario 3D World and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Would this lower price point make it easier for you to take a leap of faith into the next generation gaming scene, or do you still want to wait for the PS4 as well as Xbox One to hit the market before making a decision?
