Who is making the right decision? Microsoft or Nintendo?

nintendo is doing it right for the gamer. the gamepad is just nice.

Rubbish. If this was true, then why is it selling so little that it is not even being stocked at some major retailers?!

It needs a price cut or something. Doing nothing is suicide.

Because 90% of todays "gamers" are not gamers but mainstreamers that dont give a fuck about everything but graphics? Why do you think so many franchises fucked up last gen?  + WiiU is a really dumb name   almost all mainstream gamers I know have no Idea whether WiIU is a Wii addon or a seperate console.

Also (no offense to anyone) smart or patient people dont buy a system without games.

Pahaha, what the hell do you mean by "mainstreamers"? What is any market? What you mean is that the WiiU appeals to a niche market. New consoles allow for new mechanics which the WiiU does not.

Franchises messed up due to two reasons; the consoles were out for too long, and moronic publishers & devs.

Consoles should be refreshed every 4 years due to the jump in power. To leave it 7 years + meant nothing new could be done. They were bone dry and copy pasting games is all they could do.

Then publishers pushed devs to churn out new games before they were ready, and devs were too removed from the market to understand why their previous game had been popular, thus release sequels with every good part....removed.
