It's negative, but I think the negativity is justified a bit. The longest drought in console history, right at the beginning of it's lifespan. That in itself is pretty bad, but the fact that the Wii got little to no support it's last few years, coupled with this, spawns a negative mentality. I'm angry about it myself.

longest drought in console history? are you sure about that?

I think the N64 launch was way more catastrophic, it launched with THREE games..........and still sold 30m+ consoles and a SHITLOAD of software, if i recall SMario 64 was the best selling game of that generation.... this negativity towards Nintendo has to stop, its just embarrasing...

First of all, yes it is the longest drought, unless you count downloadable games.

 

And secondly, Mario 64 is 20 times better than any Wii U game on the market today. It was the first 3D plat, it was revolutionary. There is nothing like it on the WIi U. That comparison is flawed.
