So sick of these threads. Even if Wii U only gets a 4 year life cycle, it will end up with not that many fewer great exclusives than Wii had. If the remaining 2015 releases + Zelda are all Wii U has left it will end up with around 20 very good exclusives, whereas I'd say the Wii had maybe 25. So not some huge difference there. Xbox only got a 4 year life cycle, and most people don't whine about that. Length isn't as important as the amount of worthwhile games. Of course where the Wii U falls so short is third party support, but no 5 or 6 or 7 year life span was going to do anything to help that.
