What does dead mean in this context? I consider a dead platform any platform that isn't being produced anymore. For that matter the PS2 died in 2013, but it still the highest selling video game console. Anyway, the Wii U is a disappointment after the Wii, at the least in terms of sales. Although, Nintendo will probably still gain a net profit over the generation on it and its software, if we ignore opportunity cost. Nintendo is doing quite a bit to keep the Wii U alive as long as it deems necessary. Sony isn't doing the same for the Vita, though, and for that reason it is dying. Still, both platforms are alive.
