“As a company, we like the Wii U. We really believe that the second screen can add a new dimension to gaming. We’re still big supporters of that system. We have just as many games coming out on Wii U this year as we did at launch. So we like the second screen. We think there are opportunities with all these games to extend them – to another person, to another location. We’re taking it very seriously.”
“It’s not necessarily next-generation, but it’s next-generation thinking. We want to extend the experience to whatever screen is handy. We have been looking for ways to take advantage of these second screens. Those companion apps are our first attempt at doing that.”
In a way, they're kinda right, Ninty showed that their Next Gen in terms of Game innovation but it doesn't match the other consoles specs so its not really up in that category with them. This comes as a surprise considering several sources are saying that Wii U is close in power to the XOne.
