How do are you guys content enough to compare other consoles to a system with none of Nintendo's huge games on it yet? Just hold it. At least wait until Super Smash Bros 4 or Mario Kart comes out to judge. Nobody is going out to buy a Wii U just for Game&Wario or ports of games that already sold on PS3 and Xbox360. Just give it time. It's not like the PS4 or 720 will sell a million units every day or something.


 I think New Super Mario Bros U is pretty big and Nintendo was hoping that Nintendo Land would've been big too, but I think in that case I think people are just tired of mini-game titles on consoles.

Nintendo Land three or four years ago on the Wii would probably sell 10-20 million copies under a similar concept (Mii based mini-games based around popular Nintendo IP). It's just the time has passed for this idea, and people are not taking to the Wii U tablet.

It's big, bulky, and low tech compared to most people's tablets. It's just not an idea that's gaining traction.

Well the GamePad was Nintendo's share of innovation. They have a regular controller as well. Anybody can make a poweful console. If people only want a powerful console their hopes will be crushed in the future when there will only be so much you can do with a console's power before making it a full blown PC. It may be bulky but it's quite comfortable. If you don't like something, not saying it is actually you, then don't use it. The Wii U has all kinds of other accessory units to play games with. There's even a gamecube accessory. The sad thing is, the Wii U tablet will probably be the most innovatice piece of tech on the gaming market. A share controller and Kinect 2.0 won't be all that great. People will buy a Wii U when they don't feel like they can play it on their xbox or play station. Or, when they feel like they haven't already played it. NSMBU is just like playing NSMBWii with more levels and stuff. We get it, it was new a while ago but not anymore. When will 2D mario get truely interesting again?
