I've been worring about this for some time. I was asking myself if we don't see the history repeat itself in 3DS being bad, but Vita doing even worse and Wii U doing bad and PS4/Xbox8 doing worse.
I think that a lot of the problems come from the fact that $0.99 games have changed the market. People know how to count and in the current economy when you have to pay $60 for a game on a home console or $0.99 for a game on a tablet, they choose the second option. I am not at all interested in buying a $60 game, I can't even remember when was the last time I did. I always wait some time for a discount and even better for a GotY version, to snap the DLCs for free.
Games have to become cheaper. I think Sony is on something with Sly 4 at $40 and I am going to buy this game day 1 just to support the idea of $40 games.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
My Vita to-buy list: The Walking Dead, Persona 4 Golden, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, TearAway, Ys: Memories of Celceta, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, History: Legends of War, FIFA 13, Final Fantasy HD X, X-2, Worms Revolution Extreme, The Amazing Spiderman, Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate - too many no-gaemz :/
My consoles: PS2 Slim, PS3 Slim 320 GB, PSV 32 GB, Wii, DSi.
