So Delta lost my luggage last month and with it my Wii U power supply, sensor bar, and Wii Pad. I waited on placing a replacement order in hopes that they would find it. They did not.So today I called Nintendo to order a replacement. I had read online that replacement gamepads were around $80. This apparently is incorrect. The amount Nintendo is billing my card is $150+ shipping. Since this is a direct from manufacturer replacement price and not something you can order from them normally via their store, I figure they are not trying to price gouche (at least, I hope they aren't). So I thought this was interesting info to pass along.Some potential discussion ramifications:1) This pad is very expensive to manufacture therefore severe pricecuts a la the 3DS seem pretty unlikely any time soon2) Selling a $150 controller in stores seems very unfeasible to me. Therefore so does the likelyhood that Nintendo is going to make good on their promise to support multiple controllers any time soon.3) Target has the Playstation Vita with a game pack in for $209 right now. $60 more than just the Wii game pad for comparable hardware as the entire Wii U guts, an OLED screen, and a game. What is going on?
