Gamestop Goes Crazy With Wii-U Pricing
File this one under N for not happening any time soon. Gamestop.com has updated their list of Wii-U games and made every big E3 announcement available for preorder starting today. The only catch? The placeholder price they have listed for each and every game is a whopping $100 each.I could see Wii-U titles possibly reaching $60 a pop, but $100 will absolutely never happen, at least not in the United States. You can see the slightly inflated prices below, and also a link to the Wii-U store front so you can lock in your overly expensive preorders right now!

I rue the day that games are this expensive
This definitely made me laugh though!
These are gamestop's usual exaggerated guess-timates. They did the same thing last year when they set the Vita's estimated preorder at $1000.
Didn't they double the price of Vita memory cards before the Sony released the actual prices?
Oh no, there would be some. Probably more than some, because that's just the way people are about electronics.
It's sad but kinda true, as game publishers need to roll in the dough, and do that they have, just looking at Activision is proof enough of that haha.
Oh, and Gamestop. Yeah, this is usual for them.
I honestly do believe that we will be looking at $80 day one release prices for all new games. Not to mention then they will release DLC which will be another $5-15 probably heading toward $15. I feel that you could end up paying like $120 easily for a game.
