The 3DS is up against the Vita. Tablets too, but pretty much has a monopoly right now on the dedicated handheld market.
The WiiU is up against 2 years of neglect of the Wii, the Xbone in america-the strongest console market, the PS4 and the PC.
And it has no games, the 3rd parties aren't supporting it because of the DRM issue.
The WiiU is a good concept with a horrible execution so far. The 3DS is a decent concept with everyone else floundering so it was like "huh I guess I'm ok after all"
I say wait till the games come out 1st. Then we can discuss stuff. But I think Nintendo made the WiiU solely to ride out the upcoming gen because they believe that the Western industry is going to crash to an extent.
Xbone isn't helping either.
