Christmas is a great time for Nintendo numbers historically as their typical user is younger than the other consoles and they are more likely to be bought as presents. The wii u numbers will dip more strongly in the new year. In Europe the ps3 sells very similar numbers to wii u even now.
Yes the wii u has a few desirable games but its also a very undesirable console with weak performance and a poor controller. People expect to have access to a wide range of quality software when they buy a console but the wii u doesn't have that.
I don't know what to buy for my wii u next. I'm not into smash brothers or bayonetta. The next title I'm sure I'll want is Zelda but I don't know what else. Maybe 'X' but I lose interest in Xenoblade chronicles pretty quickly. No major third party games and of those already released most are better on 360 or ps3 which I already have. I'm looking to buy Rayman Legends on wii u but I already have it on pc and ps3 so I'm only after a cheap copy. Same issue with COD ghosts. Project Cars maybe but I might have a ps4 or xbone by the time that comes out. It's slim pickens.
