Wii U price cut vs More Wii U games

WiiU price is fine, I mean Sony is releasing a $300 white PS3 bundle, and that's a last gen system.

More games are what is needed. So far, only 2 games interest me for 2013, and I'm not going to buy a new console for 2 games. I need about a half dozen released, and another half dozen releasing soon before I buy one.

Are those two games Bayonetta and Pikmin 3?

Nintendo needs to have a giant list like Sony and Microsoft gave IGN in that chart that Arghcollege posted. They had 50 or more games and the Wii U had 3-5 I think. It has got to change. Everyone always says they are happy with the games and when they release, but it is not like that at all. When you are behind the other guys by 45 games you have to know there is a problem.

Yup

To be honest, I think Nintendo does have a handful of major titles for this fall. They just want to keep it secret so Sony and MS don't make a compeditor (e.g. LBP or Banjo) game as a launch title. Nintendo wants to make it look like their console has all the software, and the compeditor has none. This is why 3DS had 2 major titles release before the PSV even came out, and has a huge early life portfolio. Wii did the same with SM Galaxy, Smash Bros, Metroid Prime, and Mario Kart all releasing just after the 360/PS3 released.

I seriously doubt that Nintendo will let MS and Sony have a "good" debut with their consoles. Retro Studios is going to make something ridiculous, and there will be some sort of AAA title for WiiU this fall, if not many.
