I don´t think it is the same situation. The shock for the WiiU potential consumers was to find out that it was as powerful and capable as the PS3 and Xbox360.
When people jump generations of consoles, they want to see real improvment, like PS1 - PS2 - PS3, or NES-SNES-N64, Master System - Mega Drive - Saturn...
When the better games of your new system are exact copies of games from 7 year consoles, people don´t want them (See Mass Effect 3, AC3 and Batman on WiiU)
Imagine if the Super Nes came out and the games were CALIFORNIA GAMES, SHINING FORCE and PSICHO FOX, exact copies of the Master System versions, pixel by pixel. WHO WOULD BUY IT?
My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.
