Wat?

first of all, you give the Wii U a B+ in japan, but the PS4 an F. How is that justified?

 

Second of all, how the heck does the Wii U get the same score in NA as the XBO?

lol, Wii U doesn't sniff a B anywhere for its market performance.

That's like that lazy student who thinks he/she is entitled to a decent grade because they're a "good person" but their assignments/test scores are all well below par.

No free passes for past legacies, Nintendo doesn't deserve a good grade for the Wii U plain and simple. The D- for North America I gave them is probably a bit generous actually, they could easily have a full on F in North America and deserve it fully. 

Bad sales almost constantly, bad execution, no marketing/mindshare, no momentum, terrible release schedule, terrible third party support. That doesn't get you a B-grade, sorry.
