Many people here have a backlog, and its understandable if you don't care. Or if you have no time to play, I can understand that too, but you are the smaller percentage.

Single console owners deciding on what console to buy, DO care, hence they won't be buying a console with such horrible lack of games.

Besides people did pay big money to buy the Wii U and it's a general consensus that it should be enough with a console for your gaming needs. Those saying that you should get 2 consoles are out of their minds. Nintendo is just commiting suicide and when they are done with the Wii U, the ones affected will be us.

Sega left the console business after the DC failed badly. Image is forever destroyed.

Here's the point though in us saying there's a backlog. There is no lack of games! It's a myth perpetuated by fanboys of other consoles.

Yes, there's a lack of games.

Just because someone takes months to finish one or two games, doesn't reflect what people look for when buying a console. A late buyer will not be looking at what's there, but rather at what's to come. If you see 3 to 4 month gaps and the game that comes inbetween gaps IS NOT a game you are craving for, then, you would really wait 6 months to see if the next game is a game you like?

It seems that to be content wth the Wii U line u, you obligatorily need to like every game coming out. If you are not into platformers, then it might take years before something worthy comes up. That's the catch, there's not enough games, and then out of those few available, there's no variety.

The other consoles have multiple games from almost every genre coming out. Wii U has at the most, 1 game per genre in the span of 2 years. That's terrible, people like to be able to choose and not buy whatever is available.
