Ps4 outsold Wii U 3.5 times this week. Is it time to panic?

The Wii U has a better library of games now than the 3DS did when it "took off"

Mario Kart 7, Mario 3D Land, Nintendogs + cats, Pilotwings Resort, Super Street Fighter IV, Zelda: OoT 3D, Star Fox 64 3D, Dead Or Alive 3D

versus

New Super Mario Bros. U, New Super Luigi U, Mario 3D World, Pikmin 3, Nintendo Land, The Wonderful 101, LEGO City, Zelda: WWHD, Wii Party U, Wii Sports Club, Zombi U, Sonic Lost World, Rayman Legends, and a new DKC in a few weeks.

Shouldn't sales be exploding like the 3DS? Truth is you can't compare Nintendo handhelds to consoles, Nintendo handhelds always sell far more (especially when there's no mega-popular controller gimmick anchoring the console).

If ur going to count ZombiU, Sonic Lost World, Rayman Legends and Lego City for Wii U, u should add Resident Evil Mercenaries, Sonic Generations, Rayman 3D, Lego Star Wars for 3DS. Also Monster Hunter 3G was huge In Japan and the first time that game was released on handhelds where the series thrives.

Also 3DS went from $250 to $170 or roughly 1/3 of the price cut off. Wii U would have had a price cut to $250 for the Deluxe model to match that. So really the line ups to this point of time are roughly equal and 3DS had a much larger price reduction.

Im not saying ur wrong, just that ur missing a few key points.

Fair enough, but you can then also had many other pretty decent multiplats for the Wii U. Point is there basically no acceleration in the Wii U relative to it getting better games. 

Iwata called last holiday season the worst one Nintendo's ever had in the Western markets with him as president. Something is wrong here beyond just "they just need to release Smash Bros dooood".
