Price isn't the Wii-U's problem, clearly, considering that it has remained the cheapest console ever since the other 2 launched. It's not games, because it's got plenty of them, including it's two biggest ones that were pretty much it's last hope at finally picking up some traction. It's just such a poorly viewed product. Nintendo did a terrible job marketing it, deciding it's name, and making good on their original E3 2012 promises. The Wii-U's problem is that, at the end of the day, very people actually want to be bothered with it, outside of the most diehard Nintendo fans.
The idea that the Wii-U will not outsell the GC comes from the fact that it's been tracking far below the GC with their aligned launches. Nintendo thought they could retake the world by storm, like they did with Wii, but they failed. End of Story.
