Someone post the Se7en jif.
The answer is somewhat, partially because Nintendo didn't do much to get the word out that the Wii U is something different. Both Sony and Microsoft, even though they are months away from releasing their next gen consoles, have drawn more attention to gaming than Nintendo has before, during, and after the launch of the Wii U.
If Nintendo would get some games out, they could benefit even more, especially with people who are impatient to get to the "next gen". It's kind of like how generic products piggyback on the advertising of brand-name products. And no, that wasn't a slight, it was just a comparison.
