Both of these questions can be answered by looking at the past 18 months of WiiU. No games have pushed WiiU so far, that's why over 18 months which includes 2 holiday seasons they've barely hit 6 mill. Smash and MK are considered their biggest hits in terms of selling hardware.
XBOX has a target audience, that audience will react to price cuts and bundles. WiiU won't. It's that simple.

I think the issue is people not willing to pay $300 for some Mario platformer and a Zelda remake. More games will surely spur more people to buy the Wii U.
Normally, your posts are well thought out rather than saying something that is just a random opinion. You use facts. However, your 2nd sentence about a price cut not helping the Wii U comes off as just saying something to say it. Do you really believe a price cut to go along with more games won't have any impact on baseline sales?
Marketing is another big problem. So far, Wii U marketing has been one of the worst for a system I've ever seen.

It's not $300 tho, it's readily and easily available for much less. Here in the UK you could get it for less than a 360 and PS3 at one point.
My second point is entirely correct, the way I see it there is no target audience for WiiU. It will not claw in the casuals the Wii netted, they're long gone to tablets/phones, and core gamers will find what they need elsewhere. It appeals to Nintendo gamers but who knows how big that userbase is these days. Some products however good are just not destined for success.
It's exactly why WiiU has done as bad as it has, not just 'not like Wii' but bad. Because there is no audience apart from the Nintendo fans that are interested.

why people are still in denial about this i wil never know. It really is GC all over again, not that there is anything wrong with that. I liked that system
