Its hard to repeat the rabid success of the Wii. Doubtful it will happen again. Remember, Wii was IMPOSSIBLE to get for the first 18 months of its life, they were NOWHERE to be found in the US. I was actually able to turn a nice profit on several that I lucked into getting.
Will Wii U become the MUST HAVE gadget this holiday season? Hard to tell, Wii didnt really take off until very close to launch when it became apparent that it and PS3 would be impossible to find after launch day until after Christmas. Still, Nintendo is far from dead, or even in serious trouble. 3DS is selling well, and the expenditures that go into launching a console are once off, after launch they should start recooping costs fairly quickly. Give the Wii U a year and a Mario game and it will sell great.
