I've gone over this argument countless times, you've already probably read my counter argument. You put it in incredibly simplistic terms and ignore all the reasons WiiU is failing, look in the UNITY thread if you're interested.

(It's totally debateable on whether WIiU wins on games FYI) Super Mario 3D is their only big hitter, the rest, not so much.

Wii Fit U, Wii Party U? All the games that made the Wii soar? Mario Kart 8? Smash?

These games are coming out very shortly. Nintendo will be fine.

The very simple reason why the U failed are: 1) High U pricepoint, 2) 1st party games drought. We've learned that people don't buy a console for NSMB. There needs to be more than just that, especially after the series was fatigued. Not so the case of the games above, there's hunger for those titles. The most certain one is Mario Kart.

Mario Kart 8 and Smash are this holiday? No. Is Smash even soon, isn't that late 2014 at best?

The WII made the Wii soar, the concept.

That is not the reason the WiiU is failing, such shortsightness. The masses are not interested in Nintendos games without the console having mass appeal, hence why no other Nintendo system did nearly as well as Playstation or Wii. Why is that so hard to understand for some people.

It's hilarious you say Wii Fit and Wii Party U are games that made the Wii soar, er in that sense so did NSMB by your logic? It did 20m+ .... Yet it failed to do anything this time around.
