First the Wii u launch isnt bad when you compare it with PS3 and X Box 360 launch.
Wii U doesnt reach Wii Level of sales, yes but that was to be seen. Im truly not surprised at the sales.
I have said it several times now and no one have believed me the reason why the Wii was so succesfullwas because of its motion controlls. The Wii was so succesfull because it convinced all the casulas to buy one.
Surly games like Super Mario helped the system but they werent the main reason the Wii has sold so well.
Gamecube and N64 showed us that.
The Wii was also the cheapest console on the market, another reason why it sold so well
The Wii was also the first "nect gen"console on the market.
But the market has chanced. Right now X Box and PS is looking at the casual audience too which means more competition for nintendo.
In the end i think wii u will be fine but iofyou expect it to be a wii like success you are completly wrong because Mario and Zelda alone dont make a console a 100 M seller as the game cube and n64 showed us.
The Wii U need Mario and Zelda games, the Wii u need casual games and more important it need third party games ( and by that i meannot only lazy ports) and it need some time and a good advertising to differate it from other consoles.
