Why so many Wii U d00med threads when the Xbox One isn't doing a great deal better..?

I guess the media in particular like to bash Nintendo because they're pissed off that they were all wrong about the Wii and the 3DS.

The Xbox One is overtracked on here imo, you're looking at all installed userbase of 4.2m at best. It's only a matter of time before the PS4 has twice the installed userbase of the One. I'd say there are A LOT of concerned publishers out there at the moment.

The One has just been doing 'okay' in the States and has been an outright flop in Europe. This year's E3 is going to be the most important one for Microsoft in their history imo. If they don't end up shifting units they may find third party support dropping during these next couple of years, either that or they'll add the Wii U as a fourth SKU to spread the cost of development.

When PS4 SKUs end up selling twice as much as Xbox One SKUs things could get VERY interesting.

The big problem that Microsoft have is that they don't have anywhere near the stable of system selling IPs compared to Sony and Nintendo.
