Why is the GameCube selling better than the Wii U???

We can agree to disagree. All the systems will be cheaper, true. But there will be a TON of games that will only be on Wii U, while most of the games (aside from Uncharted and Halo) will be on both consoles. Wii U will still have the most experiences you cannot get anywhere else, and people will be looking to get another console. 

 

There will be 9-10 really great games on the Wii U -- Mario Kart 8, Zelda U, Mario 3D World, Smash Bros, Bayonetta 2, Splatoon, and a few others that you really can't play elsewhere. Honestly in the large scheme of things this is not a lot, and not dissimilar to other Nintendo consoles plenty of people have passed over. 

The vast majority chose a Playstation over a N64, even though it had Mario 64, Zelda: OoT, GoldenEye (virtually three straight GOTYs in a row), and most ignored the GameCube even though it had many great games too. I don't really see Wii U being much different. 

Bolded has little to do with whether the Wii U will beat the Gamecube. The N64 did beat the Gamecube... By a lot.
