The Wii U is going down the same path as the Wii and GameCube together ~ Good or Bad?

Bad.

The system has lots of potential but since what always ends up happening is 3rd parties doing as little as possible I see the Wii U's software lineup looking like that of Wii and GC. By that I mean lots of "family oriented" crap-ware along with ports of multiplatform games for the first 2 years. Since they will obviously sell less than on other platforms, there will be a steady decline in support until PS4 and Xbox 3 launch, at which point 3rd party support will be basically down to zero, leaving only the crap-ware.
