Cobretti2 said: Exactly my point. Dreamcast had many great games so the sales spread. Wii U in the last what 6months maybe more has only this one game that is remotely calssfied as good. Thefroe there will be interest. Splatoon is the only game I have bought on Wii U in the last 6 months because I already own all the ones I wanted from previous releases, there is nothing else on the radar for me to make me say I'll buy this over splatoon first. In contrast to my PS4 i have bought 6 where many have missed out.

...You do know that the Wii U has surpassed the Dreamcast in total games, right? (not counting virtual console) And the sales for the Dreamcast were not spread out, they were just bad. For example:
Top-selling game:
Wii U - Mario Kart 8 (5.11m) | DC - Sonic Adventure (2.42m)
10th best selling game:
Wii U - Splatoon (1m) | DC - J-League Pro Soccer Club o Tsukurou! (.36m)
30th best selling game:
Wii U - Skylanders Swap Force (.42m) | DC - Sakura Wars (.11m)
Regardless, your sentiment about Splatoon being the only good release on the Wii U so far this year is purely subjective. People have enjoyed Kirby & The Rainbow Curse, some enjoyed Mario Party 10. People in Europe got to enjoy Yoshi's Woolly World. Those in Japan got Dragon Quest X, Xenoblade Chronicles X and Rodea the Sky Soldier. And that's not counting the eShop games that have come out like Affordable Space Adventures, Mario vs Donkey Kong, Don't Starve and Art Academy: Home Studio (which got a physical release in Europe).
I'm not talking about the PS4 here as it's irrelevant to what you're trying to say about the Wii U.
