Oh sorry I didn't see those threads. Sorry if it's a repost! I just cannot believe Wii U sold less units than Gamecube despite it being the first "next-gen console" out of the gate. If things are this bad now, can you only imagine what will happen once PS4/720 launch at $399-449 and Sony/MS drop prices of PS360 consoles to lower levels to attract budget gamers? The Wii U will not be able to compete with the cheaper PS360 consoles and their vast library or the slightly more expensive but way more advanced/powerful PS4/720. It seems Nintendo will need some serious hits on the 1st party side and hardware price drops too. I cannot believe how badly they messed up their strategy and launch timing with the Wii U. 

Why didn't they just wait 1 more year to launch the Wii U with either more powerful hardware or a much lower price and a full stash of 1st and 3rd party games for 6-7 months ahead? I just don't understand their logic.
