Wii U price drops by $50, Wind Waker bundle announced

Starting on September 20, the Wii U will retail for $299 instead of $349. The price drop comes at a time when Wii U hardware and software sales are far below anticipated figures. After the price drop the Wii U will be $100 cheaper than PS4 and $200 cheaper than Xbox One, both of which launch later this year.

Nintendo has also announced a limited edition Wind Waker HD bundle that comes with a custom GamePad, a digital copy of Wind Waker HD, and a code for the digital version of Hyrule Historia. The bundle will cost $299.

Finally, Nintendo announced a new version of the 3DS called 2DS, which removes the 3D slider and clamshell design of the original 3DS. The system launches October 12 for $130.
