Will Japan save Nintendo and the Wii U like they did with the 3DS?

[TeddostheFireKing]

Insanely premature to judge the WiiU right now, its not even out in Japan and people call it doomed :S

I myself am unconvinced, but we'll only have a decent idea of how the system is doing by Easter, by then you can get a few vague ideas where the system is headed.

Note: to those who say it'll do well in Japan, is the 3DS doing too well right now and will it take possible sales away from the WiiU? (As the WiiU's Japan line-up is pretty damn awesome if I do say so myself).
