When people ask me about which won would I recommend (since I have both) - I recommend the 360 with Kinect over the Wii. It has much of the same casual / exercise appeal but in my opinion just does it better. Now it will be nice to have a nice HD signal from the WiiU but with the same controllers, balance board, I just don't think the that a tablet will add that much appeal to the general public.
I think Microsoft should really push some of the kids games - Sesame Street, National Geographic, Disney (Needs a Dora) - they could really be the one the kids want for the holidays. They already have the hard core with Halo 4, Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty.
Plus, their financing plan might really help too.
If I was Nintendo I would be nervous. It seems like a nice system – but for me loses on the ‘Wow’ factor. (An personally loses heavily that it doesn’t upscale the older games.)
