Too many Wii U defenders. Console is dated. They fooled us with a gimmick once, but never again. Sales will reflect that.

Why is the 3DS outselling the Vita? Nintendo fooled the people once with the DS, Why are they fooling the people again?

My point was that Motion control (while revolutionary) was a gimmick. I can't speak on behalf of others, but after buying my Ps3 I never touched my Wii again. 

Now with Wii U, they have a 2nd screen gimmick. It's a cool concept and all, but a gimmick nonetheless. 

What gimmick are you suggesting the DS had? 

The dual screens for the DS and the 3D and dual screen setup for the 3DS, you said it yourself.   Also both the DS and the 3DS were dated hardware at launch. You say that reason that the Wii U is being outsold by the other systems is because the console is dated and the gimmick is not fooling anyone. I say it is normal process in the early days of a new hardware. If it was normal for the PS3 and the Xbox 360 to be outsold by the PS2 and GBA it should be normal for the Wii U to be outsold by the PS360 at this time.
