By the way, I've said that the Wii U is not good enough since E3 2011.

Sure. And you still have no solid basis for that claim.

Except the fact that every game that has been released for the Wii U didn't rocket the console out of its hole. I mean, you have to be in serious denial to not see this. You are presented with two choices:

1) The Wii U is a piece of trash.
2) All Wii U games so far have been of abysmal quality and that's why nobody wants to buy the console.

You can't pick "Mario Kart 8 is a fantastic game that proved Rol wrong" when the Wii U was boosted to 20k and 35k units in the week of its release in Japan and the USA, respectively.

They are not of abysmal quality. They simply were not enough to rocket the console out of its hole. MK8 is. To boost the console of that many units after 2 years on the market is huge, much greater than what WD did for the PS4.

The U jumped 345% the week MK8 launched, for an absolute jump of 100k. Watch Dogs caused a global jump of 61% for a total of 68k absolute jump.

The U is not a piece of trash, and still you have no explanation to your arguments that it is offering the same games as Sony and MS. The controller? I hope that's not your argument.

All WiiU games have struggled so far to sell the U, ALL Wii U games. Including all the low-value Wii-type games you so love. Art Academy, Wii Sports, Nintendo Land, Wii Play U, etc etc. All have struggled to sell, the only difference is that these I just mentioned plumetted, while the original games that are high quality have not plumetted. MK8 is on to sell very well if this trend is any indicator.


@ bolded, but that makes little sense. The fact that it was on the market THAT long and was in the hole for that long shows just how poorly received the system has been. And please dont use PS4 as a comparison, becasue no matter how you spin it, having the PS4 makes the Wii U look worst much worse. Last i checked WD still did better and the system itself still did better than Wii U. So im not sure why bring that up. And the PS4 was never in a hole so it doesnt need any game to save it.
