I really don't want to get into a "Wii U is doomed!" debate or even contribute to it. And to be quite honest, I really don't even care if the Wii U gets any third-party support. Chances are I'll either have a PS4 or next-Xbox to fill all my third-party needs. I've always played Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games, plain and simple.

I recently had a thought, though. If Nintendo has been operating a flawed business strategy, and their console buessiness has been suffering because of it, then wouldn't a console failure give them a "wake-up" call and force to them to adopt a new strategy? They made so much money with the Wii that I'm sure they have piles of cash in reserve to relaunch themselves should this ever happen.

I personally can't help but think that maybe this would do them some good because if they only continue to do so-so in sales, it won't be enough motivation to consider a drastically different console strategy.

"just" beefing up the power of console is not really drastically different strategy...

nintendo took a risky move.... like what they did to ds and wii... it is a hit or miss with these kind of things....
