The more I try the Wii U, the less appealing it becomes to me. What am I missing?

THQ killed themselves with the U draw tablet. But I agree in general, the entire games industry is on a path of self destruction at the moment. IMO

I don't think the industry is on the pace to destruction, it's simply changing, what's basically happening is smartphones/tablets are chewing up the lower end game experiences like the casual types of games that you want to play for 5-15 minutes a day. 

Then you have the big tier games like GTA, COD, Uncharted, God of War, etc. that people buy a home console for. 

What's getting squeezed is the middle tier stuff -- gaming centric handhelds, mid-budget games like Rayman, Puppeteer, and Wonderful 101, etc. 

It seems like cartoony cell phone games are cannibalizing cartoony home console games like the three I mentioned there. Aside from a handful of popular Nintendo IP and Skylanders/Disney Infinite toy lines, colorful console games are having a very rough go of it, I wonder if kids are starting to segmentize what types of games they want on certain platforms.
