The biggest names at games retail talking under the condition of anonymity say a significant price cut and a bundle with upcoming blockbuster Mario Kart 8 will help alleviate short-term issues surrounding Wii U.
A sub-£200 machine will help, and Mario Kart is desperately needed to reach the fans, said the games boss of one of the UKs biggest retailers. We also need something revolutionary that makes use of the second screen and has mainstream appeal, which is easier said than done.
The top buyer at one online games store added: There is only one real last chance for Wii U and it is Mario Kart 8. It could still be the game that sparks interest in Wii U, but it would need to be combined with a more mass market retail price.
