None, ever. ZombiU is only doing good because it was a launch title and I doubt it will reach a million. Without all the casuals of the Wii only hardcore heavy hitters have any chance of making it and usually all of those are made by Nintendo. Therefore, none.

Not even games like say Just Dance 5?


I'm predicting those party games will feel at home on the next XBOX. If Microsoft goes for the kinect crowd and the 720 is subsidized for cheaper then the Wii U's base price, why would casuals get a Wii U? Meanwhile hardcore gamers caring about graphics would get the PS4 or PC. Factor in the super cheap Ouya and that means hardcore Nintendo fans will be the primary Wii U owners. After E3 once we understand the other consoles I might need to re-evaluate this if they are different then I expect.


Even if the next "XBOX" ends up being cheaper than the Wii U, the people who buy NIntendo products are not split up between these idiotic labels you're using "casual" and "hardcore."  People created these labels, and since they were created by people other than the ones who are being labeled, they wont act exactly the way you expect them to.  If this happens, it seems like you're saying the only attraction to the Wii U is its "cheaper price" and "gimmick."  Other than that, only Nintendo fans would buy it.  
You should know this isn't true for any console.  People also tend to buy on a whim.  They see something, it intruiges them, they  buy it.  The Wii U is its own thing, the XBOX will be its own thing, as well as any other console.  Each will have its own appeal regardless of whether you're a fan, whether it's "cheaper" or has a "better gimmick."   So I can guarantee you that when you said is NOT what will happen.
