We’ve known for some time that Nintendo is selling the Wii U at a loss, which is why the company refuses to offer a price cut similarly to the 3DS when it launched. But just how much of a loss is Nintendo making on the Wii U? CNN Money did a tear down of all the parts and found that for the basic white Wii U, the total cost comes in at $228. That’s about $70 less than the $299 suggested retail price and while that doesn’t seem like a loss, one must take into account the years of research and development that went into creating the Wii U.<\/p>\n

Still, this price difference between the actual cost of the unit and the price cuts we’ve seen from European retailers lead us to believe that there is a sweet spot for a price cut in the unit. As mentioned in the video, the Wii U sold 3 million units during its short stint in 2012, but by January 2013, only 100k units were sold. <\/p>\n
