1. WiiU's competition currently is ps3; ps4; xbox 360 & Xbox one .... In 2013 the wiiu was overpriced compared to PS3 & Xbox 360 ... Consumer were unwilling to switch console or prefer the cheaper alternative. As we go forward and PS3 and Xbox 360 slowly get phased out Nintendo WiiU will position itself to Behring the cheaper alternative. 2. The console market in 2009-2012 was around 30-40 million a year; therefore I'm expecting these numbers for 2015-2017 if Nintendo can manage to get 20-25% market share that would be like 7.5-10 million consoles a year. 3. Mario Kart is ideal game to boost console sale great family/casual game but still can grab the attention of hardcore gamers. Mario Kart and a Super smash brother are two great multiplayer and can create great word of mouth marketing for the Wiiu.

1. The Gamecube was also the cheaper alternative!
2. All last gen consoles were selling well, but that's not the case this gen. Nintendo n Microsoft made too many mistakes this time around, so there's no way those numbers will be replicated. Unfortunately, this gen as a whole is looking to sell much worse than last gen. Also, I still don't see how exactly they're gonna out perform the year MK8 and SSB4 released in.
3. Of course they'll boost console sales, but not enough to change trajectory. Again, see N64 and GC. Why yal refuse to acknowledge the fact that they've never saved any system from the usual trend of selling worse than the previous gen I'll never know! xD
