I used to think the same: as bad as the system is its predecessor made pretty big inroads worldwide, the price is still quite high, and there are more markets open to game consoles now than fifteen years ago.

But I've come around since then: the upcoming release schedule doesn't have may system sellers, third party support is non-existent, nothing indicates Nintendo itself will support Wii U's fourth and fifth years better than it did Gamecube's, looking at the PS3 and 360 I'm not so convinced game consoles can drop their prices much anymore, and looking at Nintendo's financials I know Nintendo can't feel comfortable doing so even if it could.

So, mildly disagree.
