Considering it's basically 'current gen' it is pretty bad. And that $300 doesn't get you the pack-in game. That's the biggest mistake I think. 90% of the Wii's success was due to the pack in game. How many people even played more than that? Maybe some bought Sports Resort and Wii Fit, but that's about it.

You can't tell from the pictures, but it is REALLY long. You can see that they always obscure it behind the controller...

Although that was a while ago, so maybe it is shorter now...
