I disagree with the Wii-U being trash, but mostly because 'trash' is irredeemable (Xbox One joke here, sorry even its not trash in reality).

The Wii-U is a fully redeemable system and once the Gamepad actually gets supported I think we'll be quite satisfied. Its on the track to pulling that off quite well, it may even manage to finish second to the PS4, but either way I expect this generation to be the contest between the Wii-U and the Xbox One, even if the Wii-U does manage to get back ahead of the PS4 for a brief interlude after MK8 launches.


...This is a sales site. Have you seen the sales?


Uh, yeah. Titanfall is still going strong in the charts and the Xbox One is still not beating the PS4 and 3DS, nor has it overtaken the Wii-U in total sales yet (not saying that means it can't, given that the Wii-U has a full year's head start), with the two of them having fairly comparable sales when neither has much going on if you recall.

 

Mario Kart is about to release which could well give the Wii-U a burst that gives it a few precious weeks back ahead of the PS4 (perhaps even getting back ahead in overall sales for a brief window). This could offset the negativity a good bit, and give the Wii-U the chance to really get back into the game. While I wouldn't expect that to last, and think "the PS4 has won the generation", I don't see anything stopping the Wii-U from rivalling and perhaps even beating the Xbox One.

 

Unless you're counting the 3DS and Vita; then its a two tier battle with the 3DS and PS4 at the top and I do not see that chaning.
