So you're saying that PGR3 didn't seem to be a next-gen game on launch day? That's just nonsense. It was clearly beyond anything on the xbox or PS2:

Also I'm going to presume when you looked up the Skylander game sales you realised you didn't really have a leg to stand on.

I don't mind having an intelligent conversation with someone, but now you are really pushing it. Skylanders business model is built upon selling exclusive content through toys. As a result, one does not need to sell an abudance of software to make the business transaction a profitable one. Consequently, your argument of the game not selling well does not equate succes once again only personifies your ignorance. It's a BILLION dollar franchise, any gaming company would kill to have that business model.

Noted that you ignored the screenshots. 

We are not talking if Skylanders is a successful buisness model. We are talking about whether Lego world and Pikmin will enable the wii u sales to surpass the PS3. As both titles have a very limited audience, I can't see why those two titles will help push sales up past the PS3, more so when we consider that one of the best selling series on the Wii, NSMB Wii, hasn't made sales surpass the PS3.
