This pretty much also likely seals it that the Wii U will finish its life cycle with about 13 million sold LTD, way short of even the GameCube.

Gamecube sold better but it was also really cheap. It hit $99 well before a new console was even being discussed.

Wii U is trying to compete at a price too close to its competitors.

Yet Gamecube had hardware that was on par with the  competition for that price, Wii-U is more on par with last gen and still very expensive. Hardware wise Wii-U is just terrible value.
