"It prints money!" should only be used for things that generate significant profits. 3DS and Wii U do not qualify.

Last I checked, 3DS sales were fairly strong since 2012. It's not "printing money" at, say, 2006 DS levels. But it's making Nintendo plenty of money.

Wii U obviously is not, though it is making them some profit finally. I don't know that Wii U will ever "print money", but I do still think it'll wind up selling better than GC lifetime, eventually.

Why do people honestly still think this? The GameCube is spanking the Wii U and Nintendo has shown they're not willing to take massive losses on the Wii U (so no "save me" price drops). It's not even close either, by the end of 2014, the GameCube will be like a full year's worth of Wii U sales ahead of the Wii U.
