Look at this Wii U bundle that got sold out in a matter of hours http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=761150
Wii U Deluxe (Limited Editon w Zelda WW + W101 + Ninja Gaiden for $270)
This tells me that price is the biggest problem, and that if they were able to sell it for less than USD250, there would be no talk of Wii U being doomed.


Nintendo should pay for the last multiplats Wii U will be able to get that will run perfectly well on Wii U, for example Ultra Street Fighter IV that will be released on PS3 and XBOX360.
But I don't why should anyone care for a Wii U port of games that will also be released on PS4 and XBone when it will opbviously be much worse because of the power difference.
I would rather have Nintendo pay third parties for a couple of exclusives every year like Bayo 2 or the Wonderful 101, or the Prince of Persia Ubisoft made for Wii, than get inferior ports of games made with PS4 and Xbone in mind.

so is the general consensus that Ninty consoles wont sell if its above 250? because thats kind of sad. Especially when the other two are doing much better and sell for twice that much.

and this is exactly why i dont think Nintendo can go all out in tech like the other guys. Cause no one sees a Nintendo system as a high end product like the other two. 

They need a huge shift in image so actual gamers want to pay money for their system.
