OK guys. Here are my photos that can help you see one of the reasons that Nintendo is strugglig in Europe and why it's them who need to pick up their game, not us, Europeans.

So, I live in a 1.3 mil aglomeration, so quite big for Europe. Poland is the 6th economy in the UE, also has the 6th biggest population. These are photos from probably the biggest store with games in my city. I often buy games here.

This is the Sony Domain:

PS3 games:

Are you guys impressed? Add this to the fact that PS3 and X360 games are translated into our language, while Nintendo games aren't. So... can you find another reason why Wii U struggles in Europe? This shop isn't anything extraordinary, it's like that in every shop - if they have Nintendo stuff at all. Smaller shops just skip Nintendo all the way, shops with used games don't deal with Nintendo games as well.

So please, the next time I say Nintendo needs to pull its sh*t together and start caring about us, don't attack me for it. Nintendo doesn't give a f*ck about us and they get what they deserve! If you don't care about a market, you won't achieve a success. Simple as that. When Nintendo looks at Europe, they only see UK, France and maybe Germany and totally p*ss on the rest of the continent. Their competition is active here and doing fine. Nintendo will never challenge them this way and only Nintendo is to blame for this situation. So you'd better not expect Wii U sales to challenge Sony and MS in Europe. They don't deserve to.

If the clerk even told you they have WiiU´s and just don´t want to "waste display" I´d see this more as a case of the store hating Nintendo, not vice versa^^
