This is why Wii U will never sell well. The momentum is gone and nigh impossible to build up at this point. Retailers dont trust Nintendo to sell anymore, so even when Nintendo has the means to sell their system, sales get restrained because retailers won't order Wii Us. Nintendo can only sell to consumers what they sell to retailers. Even after consumers start to want the system, it takes a while for retailers to catch up, and by the time they do, the hype dies down.
