The WiiU will likely be 6-7~ years old before Nintendo fully gives up on it anyway, to me that's a healthy gap, better than an extended console generation that we had with the 360/PS3 that's for sure.
I would have *probably* bought a Wii U if NX hadn't been announced though, there were a few titles I was interested in playing, hopefully they get ported over.
