I'm not going to pretend to be a spec-master.   I'm just going off of the general opinion I've seen on game forums and news articles.  From what I've seen, the impression so far is that the Wii U is going to only be a little bit more powerful than the current gen consoles, and that the next gen Sony/MS consoles are going to be well beyond the Wii U in capabilities.  I may be wrong, but who knows.  It's just my opinion, and the opinion of other people I know whom have talked with me about the console.

I, too, bought several games for my Wii in the first two years, but I have barely touched the thing in the several years.  When I sit down to play, I'm much more interested in playing games on another console.  Again, just my opinion here, but it is also the opinion of everyone else I know as well, and the opinion I've seen bouncing around online in several places.  I'm not saying NOBODY plays the Wii anymore, I'm just saying the novelty of it has definitely worn off (or at least worn thin) for many owners.

This is a fair statement, but the article is talking about the casual market falling under Nintendo's hands, which seems to be tainted by his ideas on the core strategy (pay attention to how he constructs his argument).

So, even though you have a valid point, his argument is still horribly off.
