Man... Wii U has just flat lined. This is terrible. I hate this thread. And I hate YOU superchunk because you made it! But most of all I hate Nintendo for not doing anything ='(

You can't hate me. That's just wrong.

I am astonished Nintendo is basically waiting until E3 to really do anything about it. Better be a massive E3 and last half of year.

I... I know it's wrong :'( I just can't help myself D':

I don't think there's much they CAN do... They can't release any games just yet anyways, and simply announcing games haven't worked well before (I'm refering to the January ND), so better to get out all the 3DS news before e3 and just focus on Wii U

I don't think they have any excuse, ANY, for not getting Pikmin 3 out by June (and really it should've been out before March ended). That was a game they claimed as "launch window" to begin with. Do they really think getting Mario Kart out 2 months ealier next year would be more important than diverting some resources to Pikmin 3?

The only possible explanation I can think is they're planning to have BOTH Mario Kart and Smash out as well by the end of the year, for if they were delaying one over into the next year as I initially expected, you'd think it wouldn't be nearly as big of a deal to push it from spring to summer when it already has 3 big hitters finally.

I'm betting on MKU and SMU to be out this holiday. Afterall they will be PLAYABLE at E3.

What superchunk said above.

But yeah, Nintendo really should have had pikmin ready by now! They dropped the ball, and I don't think there's any good excuse for that...

So PS3 is kicking Wii U's butt now. It will not take long before Wii U is trailing behind 360 and if it happens so early, the sales difference will be huge. No way Wii U will light up the charts later like PS360 did. Good job, Nintendo.

But 3DS is raping Vita in return, so it all evens out.

And besides, Nintendo isn't losing nearly as much on Wii U as Sony lost on PS3...

Really? Do you have the numbers without the 3ds?

I don't see how another product evens anything out, but hey. If it makes you feel better.

Wii U ain't doing good, nowhere near good in fact, but it's not losing money like the PS3 did, so it's doing much better in that regard.

And what numbers are you refering to?
