Well, NSMBU was my 2012 game of the year on any console/handheld so I'm exempt from having to apologize.
Regarding the rest, I certainly wouldn't call WiiU a "piece of trash" but I do have to agree that it was ill-conceived at this juncture simply because Nintendo has yet to show us why they designed the console around the Gamepad dynamic in the first place (yes, the off-TV play is great and it makes for a nifty browser around the house for someone without a tablet, but I'm talking software here).
I really like WiiU and the Gamepad, but by E3 '14 Nintendo better demonstrate something compelling that proves that they had a vision for gameplay in mind when they designed it.
