I really hope things turn around for the system ... At his point, I like my Wii U so much, I have realized it will be years until I get a PS4.  The games for the Wii U are great ... solid gameplay and fun fun fun ... I have a PS3 with over 130 games on it and none of them even come close to Super Mario U or Pikmin 3 ... I even love RE Revelations and the game play on Zen Pinball 2 is the best on the Wii U and have it for PS3, Vita, and a Nexus 10 Tablet.

 

Interestingly, the Wii U inspired me to check out games that came out on e Wii that I never played when my Wii Hooked up.  I checked out review sites and bought Pikmin 1 & 2 (Wii Controls), Paper Mario, Conduit 1 & 2, Mario All Stars, Mad World, & Zack & Wiki ... all great games ... Then add in some Virtual Console games ... Zelda A Link To The Past, Super Mario 1, Lost Levels, & 3, Neutopia 2, Gradius Rebirth, The World Of Goo, Super Mario World ... AND YOU HAVE A TON OF GAMING !!!

 

Not to mention Mario World 3D just looks downright AWESOME to me ... The Zedla Wii U when it comes Im sure will be great.

 

I think that when you look at the HISTORY OF TOP NOTCH games on Nintendo Consoles Over The Years, its staggering and the beauty is the Wii U is backwards compatible to the NES through the Wii and Wii Shop ...

 

I may have more games for the PS3, but I have more quality games with great game play on the Nintendo Platform that I enjoy much more than most PS3 games.

 

Nintendo needs to bite the bullet already and come out with some kick ass New IP First Person Shooters ... THIS IS WAY OVERDUE, if they did that, I would never even need a PS4.

i think that tv show analogy is a great way of describing the situation with wii u.



if it only gets gamecube sales then it may be a failure for Nintendo since its being sold at a loss

Considering all they need is one extra game sold for a profit, I think it will be fine.

The Wii has actually sold over a hundred million now

And because of that Nintendo took for granted that they could sell millions of any new system they released, even if it had no interesting games and zero marketing. As long as it had a similar name, it would sell like hotcakes.

 

I'm looking at you 3DS and Wii U.

 

Silly Iwata.

I think it was more so counting on a market that moved on about 2 years ago.
