Oh and on a side note also nintendo need third party. The Game cube and n64 showed that.

Stopped reading here. N64 and gamecube were very profitable for nintendo. Unlike the xbox for microsoft. Making profits makes it successful.

Nintendo can survive entirely on their own franchises.

So if 20-25m would be successful for Wii U, where do you draw the line of success? Is success determined by game support, userbase and longevity or profits that the ones who bought WiiU will never notice (because Nintendo will be moving on to their next console as quickly as possible)?

Honestly, I don't think any sales estimates for the Wii U that are below 66% of the Wii's sales are realistic; and I suspect that Nintendo would be amazingly profitable, and have massive sales across all of its franchises, if they only sold 66 million units after 6 years. With that said, regardless of whether Nintendo sells 66 Million units or 120 Million units, I think we will be seeing the successor to the Wii U released on November 18th 2018 in the USA.
