It got outsold by the 360 by 4000, (which are actually approx numbers btw) and it's not doing well even though it's doing better than that exact console and the ps3 did at there launch?
Yeah, right. Try harder.

The xbox is 7 years old...The PS3 is 6 years old. For a new console to not outsell last gen consoles is worrying.
Also news keeps on rolling in of games not being released on it.
Try harder? No, just don't get pissy when you don't like the facts.

You're comparing a launch console to older consoles with many price cuts each and alot more aware to the public. I also stated (which you didn't reply to yet you say you have "the facts") that it's doing better than both the ps3 and the console you are comparing it to, the 360's launches. Compare launch for launch, the ps2 was selling more than the 360 and ps3 when they launched..... It's more than normal given the situation. Check the "facts" yourself before commenting or you just come off as someone trying to down-play the WiiU's launch.

No it's doing better then those consoles at launch but not currently better then them. As those consoles seem to be it's direct competition, that means the competition is outselling it.
Why compare launch for launch? That is playing ignorant to the fact that the current market & economy are very different to how they were 6 years ago.
Talking of ignoring things you've completely ignored all the devs and games not coming out for the Wii U. Also as you have admitted, the Wii U isn't as known to the public as the other consoles, which sounds like a marketting failure on Nintendo's behalf.

@Bolded: Yeah, they're worse today! So considering that, the Wii U is selling fantastic! Good point Mazty! Haven't thought about that earlier :D
