I don't think there is a problem with the wii u design. I have a PS4 and have had every playstation console ever. I bought the MK8 bundle and must say I am impressed. The wii pad is awesome and a better designed than remote play. I like that it has all the shoulder buttons and isn't as awkward to hold as the vita. I like the tv control and the fact that it recognizes my family owned cable company. OK the graphics are not as good as the PS4 but It is newer than wii u.Maybe this was the right time for my first nintendo product but I am very pleased and don't feel I wasted $300 on it


Well said. The gamepad is not the problem. When something fails to live up to expectation a scapegoat is always found, in this case it is the gamepad. 

Without the gamepad they fool themselves into thinking that the Wii u would have sold more. It was that Nintendo presenting the Wii u (and they continue to do so) badly that is responsible for its state.

i think the gamepad is great even without Nintendo utilising it to its potential as yet.

Moving on: As for games Nintendo can never hope to match the multitude of 3rd party games the other two consoles enjoy but they have to do a hell of a lot more than they have done recently to keep the momentum going. It is no longer a new console and need a steady supply of good quality games to give it a fighting chance.

I am sure they are working on that and E3 will probably prove this.

I am no fan of Sonic but the new game with the crytek engine has already grabbed my interest. Nintendo needs more of this kind of hype.
