Why do users care about sales as long as you can play what you want. I think people should let market investors worry about who sales more? We are users not market investors. More consoles never equal better games.

Furthermore, MK8 and Smash Bros failure is not dictated by sales it's dictated by whether they are good games. How many crappy games have sold a crapload of units?

Actually, yes it does.

We care about sales because if there are more consoles sold, more games will be released for it.  If this thing doesn't start selling more, there won't be more games - then you won't be able to "play what you want".

To answer the OP - 2014 is the make or break year.  Mario Kart and Smash Brothers might be enough to push sales into decent territory, but I'm still quite sure that the WiiU will be in 3rd place this generation unless they come up with some completely new game that draws people in the way games like Wii Fit did for the Wii.

you missed his point. he didnt say more games he said "better" games. I think Wii is a perfect example of that. Now personally i say the 75% shovelware library compared to all the not too shabby 1st party and of course 3rd party games that devs actually cared about on the HD twins would prove his point. BUT 'better' is subjective. You'll def. get more, that much is true.
