Okay I'm done... a lot of you are thinking about this from your standpoint and not from the companies. I see no point in arguing further.


I'm completely looking at it from Nintendo's POV. 

They need to look out for what's best for the company, if I'm a restaurant I need to focus on my overall business, not making food that 2-3 customers really enjoy. 

The public has spoken on the Wii U and it's a resounding dud. Nintendo doesn't support dud's for long. Even look at the GameCube ... they largely bailed out on the system after the DS launch in 2004 (which also forced them to abandon the GBA after only 3 years). 

Would you say today that launching the DS and Wii was a mistake and that they should've supported the GameCube and GBA for another 3-4 years? No, because while it may have made "GameCube Joe and Game Boy Tommy" happy, it would be an insane business policy, it also would've handed the entire portable market to Sony on a silver platter.
