2016 is winning. shit, nintendo better hurry up and replace it because the sales are clearly in a sharp decline.

This is kind of like saying an morbidly obese man is doing ok because he managed to match the 3 sit ups he did last year. 

The Wii U is doing ok relative to the Wii U ... but lets not get it twisted, the "Wii U average" is crap, it far and away the worst selling Nintendo home console ever and selling 3 million-ish a year is not enough to sustain an HD ecosystem in the modern business sense. Shit, I don't think that would be viable even in the SNES days. 

The Wii u average is crap, but they are still profiting off of it.  When you actually go ahead and spend the research and development that necessitates making a console, you want to make as much back from that as you possibly can. Replacing it now would be stupid.
