i'm a little annoyed. According to my own scale of what makes a successful console, this console was a failure and it has everything to do with software support. My indicator, if your curious, is as follows; your console must supply an average of 5 new-worth-while games a year for a minimum of 5 years. totals out to 20 "keepers". It's completely subjective, but, for me, it looks like they are going to end up with between 10-15. .... yeah, i'm gonna list'em.

1. pikmin 3
2. new super mario u
3. mario 3d
4. bayo 2
5. hyrule warriors
6. mario kart
7. smash
8. splatoon
9. mario maker
10.xenoblade chronicles
11. star fox 0
12. wonderful 101
13. tokyo mirage (presumably)

no, i didn't forget yoshi, dkctp, kirby, or fatal frame. Wasn't a fan/don't do digital. I'm on the fence about color splash and i'm getting zelda on the nx. So baring some awesome 7 game extravaganza, this system was not up to par. Hoping the nx can do much better.
Now getting back to the point, i say i'm only a little annoyed because some of these games were just that good. Possbly my fav mario kart, def my fav smash (cept for dlc characters), bayo 2 w101, and pikmin are fantastic and so full of character.
On an aside, my best friend heard the news and is furious. He just got a wii-u and just heard the news. He also thought the system was only out for a year. lol. But he too is really annoyed with the lack of great games on the console.
