And NTDOY continues to sit like a boat anchor in one of my portfolios. If it were actually worth anything, relative to the principle it was purchased at, I'd sell it today.

While it's way too soon to be making any predictions on how this will continue to unfold for Nintendo on the business and investment side of things, the reality is that the Wii U simply lacks the trend setting impact the Wii had back in 2007 for the lack of any Wii Sports killer app or Wii Fit back in 2008.

Unless that happens, the Wii U runs the risk of being a platform primarily for Nintendo fans and die hard gamers who buy every new piece of hardware as it's released.
