Wii U pricing flaw

I don't care about how much the console costs.

I'm worried about the controllers.

The has a huge touchscreen, that's very powerful. About at, what, an xbox 360?
 in that thin little thing?

There's no doubt you have to shell out $120+ for a damned 2nd controller. I wouldn't be shocked if it was over 200. Haven't seen any other gaming sights touch on this issue.

The entire console is a mess anyway.

Pretty sure nothing is actually rendered in the controller.

This just in, technology is expensive. And when we come back, scientist speculate that the Holocaust was bad? More at 11.

Meow is right. It just streams video to the controller: the only thing it does is display video and send touch information to the console. At the moment, though, it still doesn't use a second controller, and the Wiimotes fill multiplayer spots.

you are RETARDED. The controller is NOT a *crag*ing XBOX 360. It is NOT a console. It has a screen, a camera, a gyroscope, and some other shit. It doesn't process shit it doesn't render shit it doesn't do any of that. That is the CONSOLE that does all of that. The controller won't be very expensive at all, at least it SHOULDN'T be.

Reports are that it doesn't even support a second tablet controller, but if they do sell them stand-alone I would put it at about $100. I mean even just a Dual Shock 3 is like $55.

The thing is francis 55 is GROSSLY OVERPRICED for a Dual Shock 3.

They are going to have to add multiple tablet support considering all the bitching about it.
