The WiiU has been out for four months. A the first thing is that everyone should learn is not to make rash predictions. People wrote off the PS3. People wrote off the DS/proclaimed the victory of the PSP. Peope wrote off the 3DS. All of those were wrong.
Second, there is hesitation in the market place. People do not know what the competition will bring to the table. And they don't know if Nintendo will lower the WiiU price point for the 2013 holidays.
Third, the WiiU finally got a unique game this week with Lego City Undercover. For its first four months, there was really nothing, except for the deluxe model pack in NintnedoLand that reached out as a "must have" to the non-hard-edged gamer. (The other most unique game is ZombiU which is rate M by ESRB, putting it out of the reach of many of those for whom Nintendo systems are typically targeted.). New Super Mario Bros. was thought to be that game, but it has been done several times already (DS, Wii, 3DS), so its new appeal is somewhat limited.

I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
