STOP talking about PS4 sales, lol, that's not what this thread is for. Take that talk somewhere else. I was simply stating an example of why the Wii U (which is what this thread is about) is in dire straights. It's just not a console that has a market, even the original Wii IMO would not sell in today's market conditions.
The person willing to buy a brand new console is buying one to play by and large "Hollywood summer movie-ized" gaming blockbusters. They play on their 50+ inch screen. That's what the home console has primarily become now as a result of the "middle part" of the industry basically being squeezed out.
Even Sony's Yoshida-san expressed dismay that gamers just seem to fixate on big budget shooters and don't seem to be wanting anything else.
In this climate, Nintendo is in tough to begin with, but they also made several stupid decisions with the Wii U on top of that so that they basically have no chance.
