What is an "ill-omen"?"Knock it out of the park"?
But i don't see a huge audience saying:"hey, now that mario 3D is out its time to get wiiU". I know its a diferent game from the NSMBU, but general perception doesn't go this way. Galaxy didn't sell more than nsmb. Some of the worst commercials produced for video games doesn't help too.
Still, i don't see the game that will change wiiu fortunes around here. Since we have decent third party support, this console need a great game every month, and a incredible game every 3 months to make the console the thing that 3DS is among handhelds.
Was necessary years to make the ps3 a machine on par with ps1 and ps2. Wiiu will need more time too, and will need to do all by itself.
"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."
