in compartision to the line up the hd twins had for that year its really lacking. 

ME2 might be a posibility, but they won't be able to get ME1 on Wii U since it was published by MS. Unless EA buys the publishing licence for that game from MS.

I think there's one flaw with Nintendo's current strategy: hardcore games. What do I mean by this? Nintendo is marketing Mass Effect, Ninja Gaiden, Batman, Assassin's Creed, and Darksiders as their "hardcore games". So how are they're going to attract the PS3/360 userbase who will have already played 3 out of those 5 games already and will most likely play the other two on their current console? No one is going to spend 300 plus dollars on a new console to play those games. What Nintendo should have done, and didn't (Whether there was no money for it or for other reasons) but what Nintendo needed to do was show of the next gen games that were shown off at E3 running on their hardware. They needed the new Star Wars and Watch Dogs running on Wii U hardware. They didn't. So either Nintendo has this disconnect and think that for every Wii owner no one bought a competing console or they just don't have the money needed to sway the third parties the Microsoft and Sony has/are. On top of that, without releasing pricing/release date, my guess is they're planning a 2013 release which will hurt them even more.

Sony's pricing of Vita versus the 3DS shows that they learned from having a $600 console last time out and they're not going to go that round again.  However, the specs such as its graphics chip and their President's remark that they've never been first or the cheapest shows that they're still interested in releasing a powerful machine.  However, as PS Vita versus 3DS shows they will keep the price of at least model at most only $100.00 more expensive at launch than Wii-U. 

lol There's no way you can sit there and say the PS4 is going to be at msot $100 more expensive then the Wii U because of the pricing of the 3DS and PSV? And if your going by that then it really makes no sense because the 3DS and PSVita launched at the exact same price, $250.

I saw this in the 'specification's sheet for WiiU that Nintendo sent out, I think its a really bad idea to have both the Wiimote and Wiimote+ control options available for WiiU, games barely supported Wiimote+ for Wii, this was their chance to upgrade motion sensing for the hole system so all games had to be more precise in their motion controls, instead it'll be just the same as last gen :/

Last time gilgamesh made a prediction (3ds vs Vita) it went terribly wrong. So I am coming at this with a opposite view.

I believe Nintendo actually did a good job on the hardware and will attract lots of 3rd party support. I believe it is Sony and Microsoft that shot themselves on the foot. They now allowed Nintendo to have a head start. History shows that head starts are very deadly and even led to domination in some generations. If wii u does come dead on arrival it will have time to pick up and if it does oh my the competition is screwed!

Since when was the eighth gen over? The 3DS and PSVita are done selling already?

What year is it!

The 3DS and Vita are certainly not both done selling.

@bold
Its 2012 but the world will end and therfore vita has no time to outsell the 3ds.

You're right this generation isn't "over" but vita will have to come back with a hell of a comeback. It will also mean that the 3DS will have to crash and burn.
