Quite frankly, the Wii U is hardly a "failure" yet, and calling it so when it has barely even been out two years yet, is pretty laughable. If it winds up outselling Xbone this gen, which it very well could, if Nintendo handles things correctly from here on out, then how is that a "failure" at all?

Not only that, but for all the bullshit whining about what a "failure" it is around here and other sites, it has already provided a ton of great games, with many many more on the way, both in retail form, and in the myriad of awesome indie games coming to it down the pipeline, many of which are either only also coming to PC, or some of which are even Wii U exclusive.

I'd call a system I'm happy with, that provides me games I like and enjoy playing, a success, no matter what any sales obsessed folks want to sit and label it.


As to whether or not I'll buy Nintendo's next console? Well let's see, that really depends. Will they continue making the kinds of games that I like, that I enjoy, and that appeal to me, because of their design and high level of quality? If that remains the case, which I see no reason for it changing now, 30+ years into the game, then yes, I would imagine, so long as there are games I want for it, I will in fact probably buy their next system too.
