Well a) links and b) if they already have a Wii, job done. The issue currently is the lack of games and functions the Wii U does. It needs to get away from relying on multiplatforms as those titles (CoD etc) aren't going to tempt existing PS3/360 owners. The Wii U really, really needs genuine 8th gen games and we haven't seen a single one even demo'd, yet we've seen such titles for the PS4, which is very concerning. As I said I'm willing to bet that the Wii U will probably end it's life time around the 20 -25 mill mark. If sales don't pick up over the next few months it could very well go the way of the DC as I imagine when the PS4/nextbox are released things will not get better.

I'm willing to take the bet. You win if WiiU ends lower than 25M, I win if it does above.

Agreed. Now to play the waiting game...

Fine. I'm happy that you're willing to bet, some people seem to claim ridiculous stuff only to enrage others and are not accountable for it, because it is decided too far in the future. You are willing to stand to your word.

I would say, 1 month declaring in the sig that I/you (whoever lose) was wrong and the other was right should be a good enough price for the winner. Agreed?
