Consoles aren't exactly cheaper in the UK, I'll use a 3DS's current price on Amazon as reference, a normal one costs 120£, converted to € that gives roughly 150€, so in the end, the hardware costs the same in the UK. The ones that get off with cheap stuff are only the US, Europe and Japan pay way more than them all the time (Japan even more than Europe tho), if Europe was better off than the US in economy, I'd understand, but that's not really the case atm, so I don't get why we pay this much. -.-
Whoever does the conversions for Europe seems to be one lazy ass, we always get stuff with the same numbers in the price as the US...
Nintendo 3DS was 250$ which became 250€, PS3 was 599$ which became 599€... Damn... It really makes one cry. D=
Well, I'll eventually fork over the money like always, still, doesn't change the fact that Europeans pay way too much for games and consoles, I call it blatant discrimination! D<
Pff ..I think you are actually a lucky guy. Here in Brazil the official prices will easily reach $1000 dollars ...or even surpass that
And I'm not even kidding ..that's heart breaking

That's what my buddy from Brazil told me; a can of Pringles cost around, what five or six dollars? Just import one from the states. Problem solved.

I hear you. Costa Rica's not nearly that bad but import taxes will usually bring it to about double the US price here. Taxes suck.Pff ..I think you are actually a lucky guy. Here in Brazil the official prices will easily reach $1000 dollars ...or even surpass that

Buying 2 of the black ones... Who can pass up such a great deal? lol
No but really I am going to buy 2...
Edit: One for my room and one for he living room, that way I can play even if some sucker has taken over the living room machine... Or maybe one for my other living room, either way I need 2.

That's the beauty of it. You don't need a TV at all for it.

Yeah that solves the TV issue but if I want to play NSMB while my wife or daughter is playing some craptastic cooking momma game... I still need the second machine.
One machine like that would be double the price. Maybe wii games or small games in the future,but that as far as it goes.
Anything about region lock?

HEY! Save some for the rest of us!
It seems kind of silly to make two different packages two different colors. What if I want a white WiiU with Deluxe Digital Promotion, or a black one with none of the extra stuff? Just seems like kind of a lame thing to do. I'm sure they'll rectify this down the line, though. Nintendos always good to us when it comes to colors.
Getting the Deluxe package, anyways. Thankfully, I want the black WiiU, gamepad, and all the trimmings.
