What's makes you think a low-resolution resistive screen costs Nintendo $150 to mass produce?

I think he's alluding to the gamepad replacement cost (which I believe is ~$140). Who knows how that translates into the whole Wii U price though... what with different margins and markups, presumably.

Then there won't be game like ZombiU, NintendoLand, WarioWare, and curtain levels from Rayman or 3D world.

Also, the ideal Pikmin playstyle.

its refurbished...

Nintendo's Refurbished stuff might as well be new. I ordered a Wiimote/Nunchuk combo from them for 20 bucks the other day..it got here in 3 days and the only way I was able to tell it wasn't new was because it didn't come in the Wiimote box. Thing is pristine otherwise.

youre right it costs less to produce than that, but last time I checked they were going for like $130~ in japan from nintendo separatly. and on ebay, they go for more than that. this is all hypothetical.
