Hopefully the people who claim they'll buy a Wii U at $200 get on this. =P

Update:
If you're not a member, you can either get a one day pass, which will add 10% to your purchase(CA, SC, and NY exempt from the 10% premium), or go Dec 6-8 when you don't need a pass.

Thankfully for you guys, Sam's Club is having an Open House December 6-8. No need to have a membership to use their stores on those days.

Found a one day pass. Hopefully it's not YMMV.

However, make sure you call first to see if its in stock:

As an employee of Sam's Club I'll give you guys an inside track on
this.

That Wii U bundle is an cancelled item at whatever club that pull tag was taken from. You can tell that by the "C" right beside the item number 595158. It's likely they have only one or two left in stock and the sales underperformed so bad the club decided to slash the price and get it out of there to clear up space.

As far as I know, other clubs likely won't match this price because while one item at one club is cancelled it might be active at another. So please don't go into your local Sam's Club and expect to walk out with a Wii U because (in my experience as a Member Service Supervisor) 9 times out of 10 they will not price match, even if its another Sam's Club. And yes, its bullshit, I know.

Call ahead first and see if your local Sam's Club has cancelled the item as well and save yourself the headache. The club I'm employed at doesn't even carry that bundle and cancelled the Wii U months ago.

2nd Update: Try to price match at Best Buy. You'll have a decent chance of getting it matched.

Does Best Buy match the prices of a Warehouse club?
Yes. We do match the prices of Warehouse clubs as long as the Warehouse club is a local retail competitor, has an identical immediately available product and all other price match criteria are met. We do not match the online prices of warehouse clubs if they vary from store prices.

Man. And that's the superior bundle, too. (Nintendoland is a way better game to show off the Wii U graphics AND gameplay than NSMB U.)

Nintendoland is cheap everywhere, though, where NSMBU and Luigi are worth an awful lot more.

Still, at that price it's hard to resist, much like the $189.99 Mario bundled WiiU in Canada earlier this week.

Mauricio_Magus · Dec 6, 2013

Holy shit, that price is amazing.

Marauder Shields · Dec 6, 2013

I would so get this if I could

TheGreatMightyPoo · Dec 6, 2013

Will wait til it's $191.70.

NeededSleep · Dec 6, 2013

that is the price point i was willing to buy at!

Too bad i My gaming budget is already used up for this month.

Now if this deal comes up again around Jan ill definitely bite.

metalslimer · Dec 6, 2013

The bomba deals next year will be great. It's hard to resist 3D World though. I don't have a Sam's membership though. As much fun as Nintendolad probably is, I still would rather NSMBU or Zelda though. In that next gen console thread, Zelda looks incredible.

C'mon OP its GAF - thread of 'meh, we did say that but man if it was $150 we TOTALLY would bite. Fo' realz this time' incoming

Fake edit: or that they've unfortunately no money / not part of Sams / have a gammy leg / its raining

Move that goal post

Alcotholic · Dec 6, 2013

What a strangely specific number...

Boss Man · Dec 6, 2013

I'm going to go try for this tomorrow.

Third Strike · Dec 6, 2013

Darn, I don't have a membership to Sam's Club. And I don't think places like Target or Best Buy will price match this, but I guess my mileage will vary.

Letterbomb · Dec 6, 2013

Done.

EDIT: FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU NO SAM'S CLUB MEMBERSHIP

they wouldn't buy it even at $99.

JStein0222 · Dec 6, 2013

Yep. Gonna try to find this tomorrow. Thank you Mr. Sam

Needs Smash and MK8 so they can accompany 3D World. Bayo 2 should also be out by then.

Uh...I think it's a pretty valid excuse. If this was on Amazon or BB I would be there in a second. There are definitely some people who will never buy Wii Us though like the people saying they are waiting for 99 bucks.

googleplex · Dec 6, 2013

Holy crap! now i need to find someone with a Sam's club membership.

Every Time I Die · Dec 6, 2013

I love being reminded that Nintendo originally had multiple SKUs for the WiiU launch.

Triton55 · Dec 6, 2013

Even less than for what I got my used white Wii U a couple weeks ago, damn.

idlewild_ · Dec 6, 2013

Welp, time to ask around if any of my friends have a Sam's Club membership.

JStein0222 · Dec 6, 2013

This is dope, I was looking on ebay literally today for one of these bad boys

Chindogg · Dec 6, 2013

Yeah all those $199 posts are mostly full of shit. The truth is it doesn't matter what the console has for games, they don't care for it and no price or library will ever keep them satisfied.

Doogdogg · Dec 6, 2013

Call and ask if Sam Club has those 1 day non member pass.

I see it all the time for BJ's flyer they send out every month.

You have to show it at the register too.

TY Jstein I'm drinking an no it doesn't make it fell any better.

speculawyer · Dec 6, 2013

C'mon Costco . . . match them!

I could see dropping $200 so I can play mario 3D world.

Yeah I didn't mean illegaly haha.

jmizzal · Dec 6, 2013

Ok I seen a bunch of post on gaf talking about "199.99 and i'm buying a WiiU"

Time to put up or shut up, thats the deluxe bundle, put your money where your month is

Voltron64 · Dec 6, 2013

I have a feeling this sale price isn't at all Sam's Club. I'm tempted to get one at this price.

SlickShoesRUCrazy · Dec 6, 2013

I have Costco

I don't have anymore inputs lol.

I will have to either remove my 360 or my ps3.

Loco4Coco · Dec 6, 2013

I wonder if stores can price match this?

illmatic22 · Dec 6, 2013

Im guessing Your Mileage may vary?

Was just about to ask that. Will best buy price match that photo?

MisterHero · Dec 6, 2013

protip: Sam's Club 1-day pass adds a 10% premium to your sale.

Nintendo should bundle Wii U and 3DSXL for $300 and destroy everything

I agree, it's time to put up or shut up.

I said I would bite on the deluxe bundle at $250, so when it hit $250 I got one(and I love it), it's time for all those $199ers to stay true to their word, no excuses.

M3z_ · Dec 6, 2013

I think not having a membership would be a pretty decent excuse

InsaneElite · Dec 6, 2013

Think my mom has a membership and I'm heading home tomorrow. Assuming this isn't YMMV, can't see myself not picking this up.

Unless you're in California, South Carolina, or one city in New York. Then Sam Club's can't charge you the extra 10%.

Edit: The 10% would put the price at $210, not including tax.

Meh, still too much. Will buy at x-50.

SwiftDeath · Dec 6, 2013

Hmm spent 200 bucks already today, this would've been a much better decision

OnPoint · Dec 6, 2013

Might be making my way to a Sam's Club tomorrow. Holy crap.

SkullHydra · Dec 6, 2013

This is a crazy deal!

kdash7 · Dec 6, 2013
