Mainly because the hardcore are a simple minded bunch who automatically assume less sales = worse console.. Wii U is selling the worst, therefore it IS the worst.

In hardcore land, sales always = quality

Oh, except when it comes to the Wii.. That console just sold because of the retarded cazuals, so it like, doesn't count.. or something

I really don't know.. I get massive headaches when I try to comprehend the sheer stupidity of hardcore logic.

Didn't many of the casual crowd defend bad rated multi million sellers, saying they must be good if so many people bought it ?
(Just Dance, Wii Play, Mario & Sonic etc.)

You can't have it both ways.

I loved Wii Play.. It was a blast. The tanks game alone could almost be a game by itself. Completely deserving of its sales. Though the fact that it came bundled with a Wiimote probably helped its sales as it increased its value to consumers, many of whom were likely new Wii owners looking to buy a new controller anyway.

Just Dance is actually quite fun with lots of people, at least in short bursts. Mario and Sonic was somewhat fun, though it probably sold more off the strength of the combined brand names of Mario with Sonic. So I can somewhat see the reasons for their success, though in all fairness, I will say those games probably sold more than I believe they deserve.
