Alot of people on here try to knock Nintendo because Wii U sales were so bad in the 1st 9 months of 2013, and actually thought that the Wii U was dead, even though the only big titles out were NSMBU (Which sold well), Pikmin (Niche), and Wind Waker (Remake). Now that a game (yes only 1 game) is out that people are really interested in, the sales are picking up big time, for the game and console. Nintendo fans keep harping that Smash and Kart will sell consoles because when you look at past sales, those are the 2 that sell the best and move the most consoles. Games like X and Bayonetta will pump sales up in Japan too, I really doubt they will in the US but you never know.
