I said this even before it launched. The Wii-U is going to be this generation's Gamecube. It'll finish a distant third and be widely ignored by the hard core gamer. Why? Because over the course of the Wii's lifespan, they spent too much time giving into the allure that is the casual market, a market that can't sustain itself. I'm sorry, but the Wii was a flash in the pan, a once in a life time bubble. The bubble popped, and there's no one left to want their product outside of Nintendo fans and there aren't nearly enough of those world wide to make a difference.
IMO, this gen is when the core rises again. I think we're going to see something similar to the DC,PS2,Xbox and Gamecube generation.
