Let's be realistic here folks. There is no reason why it would be out to left field for Nintendo to create an eshop app for ios and android and allow games from every other system or handheld, prior to the Wii & DS to be played on those said systems.
Publishing games on Xbox One & PS4 is "lord forgive me" plain fucking stupid!!!!! Even if it sells along the lines of the GC it will eventually begin to turn a profit. GC still have 45 titles that sold over 1 million. Games like Mario, Smash, Zelda and MK were all in the 3-7 million range, which in turn makes them profitable. Hell, SMW3D will be around 1.7 mill this week on a console that has only sold 5.5 mill ltd (if we add the npd difference and whatever Nintendo moved last week).
I think Patcher gets a little to ahead of himself at times (I just may have said the understatement of the year) and really needs to think before speaking.

Good sensible post mate, i agree that seeing out the Wii U lifecycle will eventually turn a profit or at worst break even. Their main IPs are guaranteed million sellers, which can generate decent profits. We have also seen that like the Gamecube, Wii U owners have a good tie in ratio with first party software.

Thank you good sir! It would be nice for them to pull something out of their ass and at least moving 40 - 50 million (I can dream, can't I!) mainly because I do enjoy 3rd party devs like Ubisoft who have managed to create more unique experiences then Nintendo themselves (with the gamepad) and would be a shame to see them go due to lack of sales.
