looks like WiiU is not selling as expected?

I think you are correct.  For many companies, esepcially those in consumer electronic, its all about managing expectations.  Nintendo being down 20% since its launch indicates to me that people are selling based on Nintendo not being able to meet their own expectation of 5.5 million Wii U and 5 million Wiis by March 2013.  Why wait for Nintendo to tell you the bad news themselves, by that time, itll be too late to sell.

As I said in my last post, I suspect it has more to do with speculators than investors ...

Speculatos will cause Nintendo to miss their Wii/Wii U projections?  Thats news to me.

No, but negative speculation will drive the stock price down whether or not Nintendo is on track to meet launch window projections. As such, we can use the stock price as a measure of how speculators feel, but nothing is definite until Nintendo comes out with official numbers.
