Nintendo should never bow to a 3rd party request after leaving the 3DS launch period up for third parties. 3DS didn't take off till they dropped MK7 and Super Mario 3D Land. Nintendo can't count on third parties and they shouldn't allow them any special grace periods. Nintendo games sell Nintendo consoles.

Definitely agree. But that may be what is happening with these games... just maybe.

Wii U sales are going to be ugggggly in North America for Jan-March, I predict it will drop like a rock. Expensive console, few games, no real big sellers being released post-launch, the fanbase getting restless, etc. It's going to be like the 3DS launch all over again.
They better hope a lot of kids care enough about Lego City to spend $350 on a new console for it.
Nintendo will be forced to price cut by summer.

keep waiting for that my friend..... lol

Well they can sit there and watch their sales sink even further.
The PS3 has God Of War, Grand Theft Auto V, BioShock Infinite, etc. coming in the first few months of next year for example.
The Wii U ... has crap all lined up. It's going to be the same story for Nintendo ... post-launch drought with a big drop in sales. Same thing happened with the 3DS and GameCube. They don't have a Wiimote + Wii Sports craze to bail them out this time.
Iwata will be stuck in late March apologizing to investors again for a weak post launch Wii U period, making the same types of excuses (we couldn't get Nintendo TVii finished on time, not enough content, need to work more with third parties, blah, blah, blah).

Right about not having Wii Sports but they still have the Wiimotes. Nintendo Land isn't as good of a system seller as Wii Sports was but it still does a decent job. Wii U Fit is launching in the first half of 2013. Let us see how that does with the "casuals". If it doesn't take off then you can boast more.
