Another one of these, eh? And of course, the obligatory "Yeah I hope that happens!" people wander in. lol
It's not going to happen, and you're dealing purely in hyperbole and hypotheticals. Wii U's situation isn't great, by any stretch of the imagination, but it's also hardly "dire" yet, and it is also not the worst first year a home console has ever had, so no, it's not "setting records".
This has been repeated, by me and others with a rational mindset like me, over and over and over again on forums like this. But the problem Wii U has is LACK OF GAMES. That's it, that's all. It needs more games. Mario 3D World will certainly help. Pikmin gave it a small boost, Zelda gave it an even bigger boost. The price drop and bundles are helping sales, not in STAGGERING amounts, but they've improved. The holiday stretch should still see a decent finish to the year for Nintendo. And next year brings bigger "must have" titles like Smash, Mario Kart, and for some folks, X, as well as a slew of other nice exclusives. And if they can manage to ship the new Zelda by the end of the year, that would be another feather in the cap.
But for fuck's sake, enough of these "the sky is falling" threads. We all know 2013 has sucked donkey dick for Wii U, and we all know why. So let's kindly stop with these never-ending "Is Nintendo going to abandon Wii U/Put out a new console/Go portable only/Go Third Party" threads. They're honestly not productive, and it's just the same things said, over and over.
