Of course, like any sane people, in fact working in an analytic agency, I knew the Wii U would fail.
And there was no need to wait for it's release, we actually won clients by predicting exactly how it would sell and fail, badly, because the problems don't come from the market, players, medias or publishers but just the Wii U:
It's a failed concept, marketing and hardware.

BUT, like any true game, I can't pass a generation without playing the few but important Nintendo exclusives there will be on Wii U: Mario Kart 8, Wonderful 101, Bayonetta 2, SSB, Zelda 2015 or Star Fox 2015.
but the thing is that by the time I buy it (when they redesign it and drop the price), games will have dropped in price too and/or the Wii U will probably have been pirated or emulated.
And that's what I'm sad for: the Wii U will be a financial (so where not just talking about profit but stocks) failure, and the 3DS won't be able to save since it's already stagnating around 40 millions (won't sell more than 70/80 millions lifetime, which is barelly what PS3/X360 or PSP sold).
And when that happens, there are chances that you can't find the ressources and confidence to release a next console. As a true game who already witness the fall of Sega (who made one of the greatest console however: the Dreamcast), and the failure of one of my favorite console (the Gamecube, man that was crazy quality Nintendo), I'd be shocked if they didn't.

What about you? (No, not you the completely detached from reality fan) Are you one of those who don't care or don't like the Wii U but know they'll buy it eventually because you can't miss some of the few great games there'll be on it?
