To compare recent sales of a console which is should to be on the rise (the Wii U) with an 8yr old console in decline - dramatically so this week- is really not fair even though I get your point.
If the GameCube's third place (24m or whatever sold) can be deemed comfortable in it's generation then I agree with you.
The Wii U is lacks the family orientation of the wii so I really don't see how it can appeal to that market that right now doesn't seem to really care for it.
