Today at the Sam's Club in Fayetteville I snagged a Wii U Zelda Bundle for only $98.71! Happy Hunting!

Nintendo is screwed..... Closes Sam's Club store to me is Idaho Falls. They quit carrying them last year. The 2 Walmart's close to me have only a few games a piece and no systems. I just figured they were selling better since the Nintendo Direct. But according to the guy I talked to they have started to send the Wii U stuff back.

WOW, would definitely buy one at $98

Probably wont ever play it, but it would be cool to preserve it in its original package and then see how much it would go for 40 years from now.

I already have one. Bought for $300 with Mario U/Luigi U. Was worth it. :)

They offer a one day pass at most of them. I called the Salt Lake City Sam's Club and they have some for $130.00 with either Zelda or a Mario / Luigi combo (Never knew it existed.) Debating on getting my Sister to get me one.

I looked online and the regular price is still listed

I would imagine you should call and see if your location has them and at what price. If you are shopping for a system online I would think the sales would not be valid, if you can buy online from Sam's Club at all.

I have never worked retail electronics, but I assume similar principles apply to any situation where stock builds up and needs to go.

Nintendo already got their money for these units. The longer they sit around, the higher the chance the retailer will take a hit to get rid of them.

Means nothing other than people aren't buying them from those particular retailers.

I'm good, I already bought my Wii U last year at Target. Oh and by the way, Walmart is a terrible store.

Lol for 150 seems like a steal to play the new smash, mario kart 8 game and hopefully a new Pokemon game.

Meanwhile, the Walmart near me has an entire section dedicated to Nintendo, and they tell me it sells faster than Xbox One!

Anecdotes, man, how do they work?

Is this just Sams Club or Walmart too? I know ASDA which is like Walmart's UK outlet already liquidated their inventory last year, and I remember people mistook the firesale as a spike in demand.

Better use that voucher for Wind Waker now, they expire in early March. (that may be why that bundle was priced to move)

If that ends up being true, I would run out and buy one literally tomorrow. Not even for the Wii U value, but for the value of it being a Wii. I never had a Wii last gen and there were games I wanted to play. This bundle is roughly the price of an original Wii.

Nintendo, full-fledged Pokemon game for the Wii-U. Try it and see if it works. What do you have to lose at this point? No more rumble app bull. An actual effort would be nice.

Hell, when you find a good deal, jump on it. The Wii U is a good console. I have been having a blast on it. Its third party is severely lacking, but the first party titles are outstanding.

That's a good price. Much better than the $349 we paid with a shitty pack in game.

On the contrary, I couldn't have less shits to give about Wii U if I tried.

This pic is on several websites already. Blocking his serial number is pointless now. Just read that not every Sam's is doing the deal.

It was one of the selling points to me. Enjoy. You have to buy a wiimote though. Otherwise I believe it is ready from the get go. The older games weren't programmed for the new pad.

That's a bargain.

In the UK I will wait till it drops to £150 then I will grab one till since the only games I want are Mario Kart and Zelda.

Dayum, awesome price.

I think £140 is my sweet spot for the 32GB Wii U to reach before I invest currently.

Agreed. 300 + 2 games is a very good deal.

I think that 400 or 500 without any games is too expensive for a system, even if it is more powerful.

Microsoft with all their money should help Nintendo and Sony do this for all their remaining consoles.

People love cheap stuff.

But unlike PS4, WiiU actually has great games coming soon and great backward compability.

Looks like we've found the magic price point for WiiU.

Make it happen Nintendo!
