Topic: Wii u price increase ?

Hello,
I been saving to buy Legend Zelda Wind Waker WiiU, but today I check amazon and the price was 330 dollars, it may not be alot, but that mean 3 extra weeks of saving for me. I've checked Walmart the price is 299.99 , but i have t play 17$ of taxes.

So my question is will the price on amazon go down? or should i get the on from Walmart?
thanks

Go with Wal Mart if you can get one. If it's Amazon U.S. you can check prices but honestly Amazon in U.S. does not sell Wii U.(Unless something has changed) That is the reason they are more expensive there.

Amazon isn't a first-party seller of Nintendo consoles. Thus, the prices are almost always higher than anything you'll find in stores.

Exactly.

Thanks for the response .

Also did you check to see if that price on Amazon included tax and shipping? If it does then that price seems legit. The price at any store is 299 plus tax and you don't have to pay shipping. Its up to you really.

I really do not understand why Nintendo and Amazon don't make up on the hardware issue. Pokemons are now the best selling games on Amazon, more than GTA, and it would surely have been accompanied with 3DS consoles if Amazon would sell them. Fix that relationship already... geez.

How come Amazon EU sells Nintendo hardware but it's American counterpart doesn't?

Amazon has a reputation for driving a very hard bargain with their suppliers, more or less forcing them to take a significant cut in profit margin. Perhaps NoA does not want to play along with that?

It had something to do with the 3DS price drop, I am sure you can google it.

I couldn't find anything that supports your claim but I did find this tidbit:
