I'm sure right now Wii U developers are making a lot of money on eShop games. I mean what with all the Wii Us that have been sold and all the games available for purchase on eShop right now.

I'm sure whatever perceived advantage Nintendo thinks they have at the moment, Microsoft and or Sony will counter when they truly feel threatened. Until then, developers are making money and considerable amounts of it on XBL and PSN.

The problem Nintendo faces right now, and to which it is throwing money at, is getting developers to your table after they've thrice been and you've refused to feed them. Nintendo knows it needs games in its eShop so it'll do anything it takes to lure them there. Like a pedo enticing a child into a big white van with candy or a puppy.

If they don't get developers on board, especially with unique content, then they potentially run the risk of losing the consumer in the short term. Basically chicken and egg problem. Need games to entice consumers, need consumers to entice developers.

It'll be interesting if they succeed.
