Wow so if you haven't yet looked for Wii U games on Amazon, they are priced at $99.99 each!  I know in the fine print it says they are estimates, but that is a scary estimate!  Any thoughts on this?  I cannot imagine they would be any more expensive than PS3 games, do you guys? 
Here is a link to New Super Mario Bros. U for the great price of only $99.99:

I think they just price them high so they don't accidetally sell them too cheap and loose money.

It's easier to lower the price on pre-orders than make it higher.

Come on that's just nonsense.

99,99? Release date 31.12.2013?  ::)
2 + 3 = 23

What these guys said.  I recall the PS3 being listed at 999.99 when it first hit Amazon.  It's called a placeholder, same as the artwork that they show and any details about the product.  It'll all get changed as more info trickles out.

Again, its just a place holder, Nintendo has made no announcement on how much games will cost.

unless its a third party game....Shows Darksiders II, Batman Arkham City, and a few other games for 59.99...I figure those are probably right prices. I don't think they would go much (if any) cheaper than PS3 or 360 titles now that its got comparable graphics
