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. 

While I agree that sales will slow down, I wouldn't bet on a price drop that soon particularly with Wii Fit U releasing during the first half of next year.

Also, comparing WiiU's situation to 3DS' is grossly inaccurate; the 3DS had nothing in its first 6 months remotely close to the selling power of Mario or Nintendoland.
