Sorry but almost none of you're arguments are true in my opinion. First of all the games you mentioned are not mainstream software that made the Wii sell, both N64 and Gamecube hade the same software. Mario Galaxy? Mario 64 hade a bigger impact. Mario kart? I'll give you the online support but apart of that nothing new. Super smash brother ''somehow'' did better than Melee? What did you expect with an install base 4 times as large? Zelda Twillight Princess? Zelda: Ocarina of time, need i say more? So there is no software that made the Wii sell that it's predecessors didn't have.

Yes the Wii-U does support the motion controls of the Wii, but that's not something unique for the system is it? It isn't something new either.

And the tablet controller an upgraded version of the DS? The DS is a portable console, the Wii-U isn't.

What mainstream software are you reffering to? The Mii games like Wii sports and Wii Fit all centered around the controllers they came with. Again without these controllers the Wii would not have been appealing to casuals. The only thing Wii-U has is the tablet controller but people aren't really atracted to that, they have been playing games on tablets for years now. And again it's not an active type of gameplay like with the Wii mote or the Wii fit.

wii u has the multiplatforms the ps4 and nextbox will have + countless quality exclusives, all at a lower price. if that's not enough for someone to buy it, that person is not a gamer in any sense.

He was talking about the mainstream software that made the Wii sell and not the motion controls. And again Wii-U does not seem to have the same mainstream appeal.

And Wii-U will not have all the multi-platform titles the PS4 and Nextbox will have. Once PS3 and X360 stopping getting these multi platform games and developers start focusing on the PS4 and nextbox alot will pass by the Wii-U aswell.

And even if it would get all the same multi platform titles, gamers who are mainly buying a console for those multi-platform games will buy a PS4 or the next xbox. It doesn't make any sense to buy a much weaker system for your favorite games.

So what do you end up with? Only the gamers that put Nintendo's franchises first will buy a Wii-U, aka another gamecube, with maybe a few million casuals buying it because it is ''the new Wii'' once the price is right.

 

Well, that's your opinion, I think you maybe said 1-2 things that were actually true, but hey, it's all good.
