surely you're aware of the obvious mistakes made with the Wii U though? you're acting as if NIntendo put out a top of the line system and failed or something. they still dominate the handheld market and put out a home console that had a name that made no sense (not at all like the Wii) and that was expensive for its capabilities and had a strange controller

I think its pretty obvious that if Nintendo had released a traditional console then their hardware sales numbers (handheld + home) would be matching that of the GBA and Gamecube era

at any rate you're trying to make a point about Smash and 3D world being behind at the moment but if the Wii U continues to be sold for another year or two its quite possible those leads will be erased anyway

using software as a way to make your point would be crazy, the 3DS has pushed way more software than Nintendo was pushing with their handhelds in some of their earlier generations and I would not be suprised if software sales wise the 3DS is beyond the GBA

Of course they made mistakes, (if your console sells 15 million lifetime you obviously made mistakes) but that doesn't change the end result.

All we can hope for is that Nintendo fixes these mistakes moving forwards so that next gen isn't a reprise of this one.

But wii u won't sell 15m lifetime.
