The Wii U is being sold at a loss, and that's before unoffical price cuts. Now from the outset the low sales then sound a good thing, however if we consider R&D costs, Nintendo need to sell a lot more consoles to cover costs otherwise they will lose a lot of cash.

Iwata is the CEO of NINTENDO, not Wii U incorporated. If the 3DS makes them money, the Wii U loses money and the games makes them money... who cares. The only thing the shareholders check is the numbers in their reports, those were in red because they already reported R&D for the new console. I think he is safe at least for a full year.


Lol no dude, just no. Investors care because it shows Iwata has made a huge, huge mistake in the Wii U if its a complete money-sink. Who the fuck thinks "OMG he chose to go with a console that very few want buts thats okay"?
