I kinda like the direction Nintendo are taking, their 1st party games are of the highest quality and they are now taking the route of buying up exclusives or doing collaborations eg Devils third, Bayo 2 ,Hyrule Warriors, which is needed due to lack of third party. Mario Kart 8 seems to have done a good job so far by shifting quite a few consoles and doubling the weekly baseline. Add this to the upcoming Smash Bros,Kirby, Xenoblade, Zelda and some very interesting new IPs such as Splatoon and Captain Toad, its quite safe to say Wii U is a huge success for gamers. If these upcoming titles provide more sales boosts a la Mario Kart, then we could well be seeing a nice little turnaround for Wii U. Obviously not gen winning sales, but enough to be profitable and gain momentum and good word of mouth carrying them into the next gen.

Im also curious to see how Amiibo fares.
