How did Sony turn the PS3 around but Nintendo couldn't do the same with Wii U?

Because  Nintendo tries to stay unique and deliver their special kind of games and not what the masses of idiots want. Also they´re making HUUUUGE profit thanks to the Wii U, how is that "Nintendo couldn´t do the same" again?

Nintendo aren't making a huge profit though :p The last few years have been their worst since they first start reporting their earnings in 1981. They've posted a FY loss for 2011, 2012 and 2013 (though it appears they might post a profit for 2014, but a relatively small one).

That's not to say Sony are doing well, things have been rather grim for them for a while, but let's not pretend the WiiU has been anything other than a sales and financial failure for Nintendo. It's fortunate they have the 3DS to rely on.

(You can google "nintendo post 3rd annual loss" to find out more).
