Has the Wii U irreparably damaged Nintendo's image?

Sure, I think we can trust Ninten, and the Wii U hasn't left a permanent mark on them. There is always next time for them to potentially turn this around. They did so with the Wii, and they can do it again. Hell, if they just made a really powerful console, priced it well, marketed it well, and get all the 3rd parties on board, they can probably turn this thing around.

But, Ninten won't be doing that, sadly. And even if they did, 3rd parties would probably punk out on them anyways. Guess we'll have to see what sort of crazy new scheme they're planning. Hopefully something good...

If Nintendo can get the stars of their titles back to being a household name (through movies and tv series) I think that could greatly effect next gen. It just depends on what they do with Universal.  

Remember when Nintendo was booming? They had the Super Mario Super Show, They had a Legend Of Zelda cartoon, they had Captain N and the N Team, they were freaking everywhere. 

I think that would be great personally, though maybe not everyone would agree that is enough. A lot of people do say they are getting tired of Ninten's usual IPs. Perhaps it would be good if they could make more new IPs that everyone can get behind? At least to get people to stop saying "Just Mario and friends again..."

But I agree that cartoons and movies would be great to see Ninten bring back. : )
