looks at weekly sales, yup still doomed.

Yeah, but PS3 was doomed when it launched as well (although, doing a bit better than Wii U is doing right now), but they turned it around. At did anyone reallt forsee the success 360 has had?! Many things can, and will, change within a year or two.

yea but ps3 was 599$, i knew it would bounce back, i can't see the samething happining with the wiiu, i also think the ps brand is much stronger and has loyal fanbase.

And Nintendo DON'T have loyal fan base? They do, or else they wouldn't have made it through the GC era. And how big a fan base PS has remains to be seen. This last gen we saw a hellalot of ppl skipping PS in favor of 360. And the question about fan base really boils down to one point, and one point alone; exclusives. Because, why else buy one certain console? People bought PS1 because of all the awesome 3rd party exclusive, as was the case with PS2. But enter xbox360 and multiplats, and we see how ill equipped Sony is for a challande like that. No more 3rd party exclusives? Then the sales start to drop. Based on how much each console makers 1st party games sell I'd dare venture and say that Nintendo has the strongest following. Sony and MS is making money from the millions of gamers that don't care what system they play on, as long as they get the majority of kick ass games, and that's why 360 cut in really, really deep into the sales of PS3; because the majority of gamers don't care what system they get. They care about the games.

And I'm sure 3D Mario, Mario Kart, SSB4 and Zelda will sell a couple of Wii U's.
