I still say 20 million will be the lifetime. Nintendo will keep it going after the next one comes out. But Wii U is basically Windows Vista and 8. Once you got that bad rep, people didn't bother with them. No matter if issues where fixed.

Phil says that's bollocks and that you should believe in your product. Turnarounds are possible.

yeah, well I'm a pesimist and don't bother with hope. When I see Smash and MK8 not do much.

Does it matter if it reaches a certain point of sales? I thought Nintendo focuses only on profits rather than install-base as a lot of you have been pointing out?

That never matters to people. The GC will be always remembered as a failure. Even though it made profit. People don't care about logic :P HUGE NUMBERS MEAN ALL! God forbid Nintendo could keep making consoles forever. Never have 3rd party again. And still make profit. That is inherently wrong somehow.
