The herd will follow the bellwether, so good news for the Wii U.

The keen observer has already for some time been able to see the shift in the gaming community perception of the Wii U from where it was cool to hate on the system and ridicule the interface, specs and controller, to where it is now more cool to acknowledge the good games on the system and woefully resign to the faith that the system will be a hidden gem.

Of course, none of this will matter in the end as the gaming community is just a very minute part of what drives the success of a console. It is as always the general public who will decide the faith of the machine and they don't give a shit about Kotaku.
