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

On topic. It's Japan line up is killer, so it might do OK there.

That has always been the big question about Wii U.

Will western third parties support it ? or they will ignore it when PS4/X720 launches ?

As always, Sony and Microsoft will have the ultimate say with that question. My thought is, if their next-gen systems are about 5 to 10 times as powerful as their current systems, the Wii U will receive most of the multiplatform hits. THis is likely if they try to aim for under $400 at launch. If they pull another 599 US dollars though, that will hurt both them AND the Wii U.

If the guys from Neogaf are to be believed. Sony and MS are aiming at least 10x more power than their current gen systems.

In that case, expect the PS Omni and Xbox 8 to suffer early on while the Wii U does well at first but loses support around 2015.
