I don't exactly understand why people think that. If you think Wii U will preform like that, give a good reason why. I think Wii U will sell 30-35 million.

Also, don't use marketing and game droughts in your reasoning. We're past the game drought and Nintendo started marketing.


If you pair aligh the Wii U and Gamecube sales, the Gamecube is selling twice as well as the Wii U.  So what is your response to that?

Yeah even if does have a better lineup for 2014 than the GCN did in 2003, it really may not matter. Nintendo dropped the GCN to $99.99 in fall 2003 and fall 2003 was the biggest Christmas season for the GCN as a result, so Wii U is probably in very tough to match that with its third Christmas numbers. 

I honestly think things like X and Bayo 2 are just list filler at this point too, that type of game is not selling a statistically significant number of consoles. Personally I'd love it if they sold 10 million copies each, but that's not the reality of the marketplace.
