Good for those in the UK... Still, i'd rather live in Canada and pay Canadian prices.

So that's about $250 for the system and two games? We're at least in the neighborhood there. Another $50 dollars off, another AAA game, or ~$50 in Virtual Console credit and I'm probably clearing space under the TV. Of course, I don't have to even think about it until prices get more sane over here.

I bought a wii u, and sold it a month after...it completely sucks ass in every category. I can't even watch a dvd on it. Worthless trash, they made it a strictly "nintendo game machine" and their nintendo releases are too far apart.

This doesn't seem part of any promotion, probably more like what happened when Sam's Club and Sears was selling them for $100, probably to get rid of older bundles to make room for the new ones. Also, I think they're selling two separate bundles for £150 each not one with two games included, as they each had Lego City and Wind Waker bundles. Wii U's are typically more pricey in the UK than they are in the US, for instance they have the New Super Mario Bros with Luigi DLC (1 disc) packed in to a Deluxe bundle for £288, it's $290 on Amazon in the United States, in USD to GBP the bundle comes out to $484, that's a 67% more.
