It's resistive which isn't bad at all and no it isn't an HD screen either. The screen doesn't have the power to be HD and I mean it isn't bad either. Everyone whose covered the WiiU and tried it out has said that the screen looks better than an Ipad and I don't see what's bad about a screen that is resistive works better than a capacitive. You'll get use to it like nothing
I'm gonna say that the tablet is probably going to be somewhere between $70 and $80. I know that might seem a bit optimistic, but I assume that the Wii U will have one packed in, and since there aren't any intentions that I know of, there won't be any games that utilize two Wii U tablets for a couple of months. After that, I'd say that 70-80 seems very fair, since people won't need to buy multiple controllers. As for the console itself, I can imagine it selling for probably $350 or even $400 if there is a pack in game (I'd love to have a new Mario or Pikmin 3 as the pack in game, but that's just me)
Would love to see Mario or Pikmin in there too but I know they won't do that
@zapdinos: At least we agree that Metroid is awesome! Anyway, I am just trying to look at the pricing realistically and not what I would like to pay. I am a strong believer in you get what you pay for and I would rather pay a premium than pay for something cheap and underwhelming.
To blessed to be stressed.

Eff Yeah! Best series in my opinion but I'm mad at Nintendo. They focus too much last year on Zelda and forgot Samus 25th but hey loyal fans stick by her. And I agree with you there realistically I could see it drop at least by 10. I mean regardless I know they'll give a great system/controller and like I said I'll complain about the price but I'll pay it. As a consumer I'm entitled that but hey I can agree with you though I'd rather pay more for something that will be great.
Streaming quality can limit it. Hopefully at least 720p. Who needs apps? Angry Birds, Bejewled, and Plants VS Zombies aren't everything. I use them for some gaming, but not nearly all.
No the system supports 1080p the controller though is thought not to. Like others maybe I could be wrong but as of CES with a more updated WiiU than the one at E3 it isn't. No exact resolution yet until this year but I think it should be in the final form or at least 720. Everything you said about pausing Mario and that other stuff is what it can do. I think it'll work fine it's said to be better and brighter than the Ipad. @VincentV As a time killer really would be nice.
The successor to Nintendo's wildly successful Wii console is reported to carry a price tag of 24,000 Yen or $299 in US Dollars.
According to our Japanese source, the source of this information stems from an unnamed Japanese development studio, and is in line with the technical specifications of the device. The price pertains to the entry-level unit with no extra attachments.
Whether the console is shipped with its OLED controller tablet is unknown. Nintendo is expected to take a loss from the sales of the device, should that be the case.

I'm seriously hanging on wether to pay for this or save for a laptop. I mean I want it of course but only because it's Nintendo. I just don't see myself using it Day 2 unless a Mario title or something amazing is a Launch. Maybe Pikmin but still, doesn't justify paying so much straight away against the endless hours I could get from a laptop just a few weeks later... Perhaps importing would be cheaper but the two day wait would kill me.

Keep in mind that companies never simply convert the currencies to determine price. It could be lower for all we know
