Was that flop? Did Sony or MS do something quick and massive to change that?

Plus a minor difference: Nintendo has the 3DS in beast mode and Wii and DS keep bringing profit in... not everything feels doomed from Nintendo to me... any comment???

I am happy to have a Wii U selling on pair of XB360 and PS3!

Wii U wont' get the amazing 3rd party support PS3/360 got.

Wii U isn't selling on par with PS3/360. It's selling below.  PS3 is selling more than double this week.

Oops - http://www.digitalspy.ca/gaming/news/a96023/ps2-outsells-ps3-by-4m-in-2008.html

PS2 was a beast dude. Even the Wii never got close to its sales. Just look at those sales. 13m in its 8th year? That is crazy. PS3 never had a chance.
But lucky for Sony a lot of that 3rd party support carried on to the PS3. Can't say the same will happen for Wii U, Wii never had much 3rd party support to begin with. Games like Just Dance sell amazingly well, but those are also on PS3/360 now and I expect them to end up on PS4/720 as well.
