Didn't read. Anyone who says it's a failure after one year is an idiot.

Anyone who thinks it's not probably has zero knowledge or experience of either economic, commerce, consumerism, marketing, or simply the video game market

You say this, yet do YOU have experience?

Again I work in a trend cabinet, and yes I've work in the video game industry for 2 years, but mainly I have played and follow the market for 10 years and that's my job to see or predict the future (in terms of trends, technology, society, politic...etc...and here I'm not even talking about 20 years/50 years long scenario, but the OBLIGATORY failure of the Wii U as of now).

no problem to put some demos in iOs and google play for free. 
If in the ending it says: "continue on wii U".

About failuring: they survived to GC and N64. With the money of wii and DS they can survive 4 more gens failuring in home console.
They will only abandon hardware when they failure both in handheld and home consoles for 2 gens.

NOPE. The reason why Nintendo WAS successful and HAD great quality games is because they combined both console and software, like Apple combines devices and OS.

Unfortunetely, Iwata completely lost it, and they've made nothing but wrong decision for both console and software that they are already paying.

And the ONLY thing I hope for, is that the Wii U console cycle won't last long so that Nintendo release a true new and powerful console in 2/3 years.

@ bolded

Considering the difficulty Nintendo have found the step up to HD development (as seen by the relatively sparse first-party release schedule of the last year), do you really see it as feasible for Nintendo's development studios to switch to a whole new range of hardware again in such a short time span?
