Well if it makes NOA feel better, the Wii U isn't selling any better in Japan or Europe.



Make me feel better if a supposed Nintendo fan actually would stop dissing Nintendo every chance you get.


That's just the truth.

I like Nintendo games, but I dislike their management and where that has taken them as a company and warped them into a narrow minded corporation that banks everything on about six game franchises, and does pretty much everything else (marketing, third party relations, hardware development, OS design, online networking, cutting off Western alliances unless it's working on a old Nintendo IP, etc. etc.) poorly.



Has Nintendo fucked up with Wii U launch? Sure. However, I see nothing wrong with their online networking (hell Miiverse kicks ass). They are courting indie developers heavily (if you want 20+ links on this then I can provide). They made a lot more new IPs than most people want to admit (I can list a decent amount of new IPs on Wii, DS, 3DS, WiiWare, DSiWare, 3DS eshop). They are about to release a patch for the OS that speeds it up greatly. Their web browser kicks the PS3 and 360 web browser's ass. To me you only have marketing, hardware design, and 3rd party support as legit arguments. Also, I really don't give a fuck that EA and other western developers hate Nintendo because I don't give a fuck about them.
