There will essentially be two options on offer – the Wii U Basic Pack, the Wii U Premium Pack.
The Premium Pack will have two bundle options – coming with either NintendoLand, or with ZombiU and a Pro Controller.
Wii U Basic Pack: RRP of R3,999.
- The basic pack includes a Wii U console with 8GB internal storage and a Wii U GamePad, both in White.
Wii U Premium Pack: RRP R4,599.
- Black Wii U console with 32GB of internal storage, black Wii U GamePad, Wii Sensor bar, bundled with Nintendo Land.

- The limited edition ZombiU Wii U Premium Pack comes with a Black Wii U console (32GB), Wii U GamePad and Pro Controller, Wii Sensor bar, and is bundled with survival horror game ZombiU.
