Nintendo Wii U ZombiU Deluxe Set for $350.99 Shipped (Via V.me at Newegg.com)

Quote from GuardianFlame : V-me declined by credit card, newegg said this caused them to lose order in there system. Can't reprocess order. What the hell?

Just looked at email V.me sent after signing up this morning and it says:

You can use V.me with any Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover card

Was your card not one of these? If so that may be why, not sure. Sorry I am not more help.

Used Visa....called credit card company they said they didn't recognize V.me, so they declined it.

make sure that you are using a credit card that matches to the shipping address that you are using for your newegg order...declines often occur with V-me due to having different shipping/billing addresses

Well that is pretty ironic that your Visa Credit Card company did not recognize V.me as it is a Visa service.

Same here.

Nice find!!!

I imagine a huge price drop for Wii U before the PS4 comes out.

Quote from WildChickenDanc : No one wants this garbage. Nintendo failed.

Thank you for the insightful comment, was a great contribution to the thread!

I've been waiting for a deal on this thing. Not sure if I can pull the trigger even though even with just the controller it seems worth it. Probably would just end up flipping zombiu. Provided it doesnt go out of stock seems like I have all march to make up my mind though. Thanks OP

People still buy these?

The problem with Nintendo is that they're sacrificing raw power for their hardware for gimmicky controllers. If the system was more powerful than what it is then the price maybe wouldn't be too bad but there really aren't that many good games out right now. I expect a major price drop leading up to the PS4 launch but it will probably take a couple of years for this system to be a worthy buy.

Quote from RavenSEAL : People still buy these?

The problem is that people haven't bought these, minus the few nintendo fanatics.

I'm not sure I would consider myself a 'Nintendo-fanatic', and I bought one day one. Everybody is different, for me $300 is a console sweet spot. The lack of games may bother some, but I enjoyed Mario and Scribblenaughts and of course the price. Also I got Black Ops 2. The system is still new, there are lots of games for me to play on other systems in the meantime.

This has to hit at least $249 for me to get interested.

i highly doubt the wii u will drop by much when the ps4 comes out. probably a $50 price drop, making it like the costco deal a few weeks back. this bundle is actually really slick.

the wii u gamepad is no gimmick! its very innovative and really fun to play with! it adds a lot of tension when playing zombi U. i do find it funny when people bash the wii u controller's touchscreen as "gimmicky", and not the sony's touchpad controller.

Quote from cervantez015 : The problem is that people haven't bought these, minus the few nintendo fanatics.

im not a "nintendo fanatic" but i bought the wii u during the 2nd week of launch. first time ive ever bought a system during launch. i bought it after careful consideration of 3 points (not in any particular order).

1) the touchscreen gamepad is really innovative and fun! the next xbox and playstation 4 just seems like another console with upgraded graphics that will pump out generic shooter games. big whoop.

2) the wii u's upgraded ati 6770 video card is similar to ps4's 7xxx series video card. there wont be a big difference in terms of graphics between the nintendo/xbox/ps4.

3) price. nintendo at $350 is definitely the "best bang for your buck" system. playing next-generation games, having backwards compatibility, streaming movies on netflix, hulu, youtube, and browsing the internet is really nice. as for the other consoles, xbox will be expensive and on top of that i'd have to buy their monthly subscription just to play online! and playstation will probably be super expensive at maybe $500+

so there you go. i bought it after careful consideration, so please dont go around calling everyone who bought a nintendo a "nintendo fanatic". and im not trying to debate with anyone here, those points are just my thoughts of the system.
