Nice numbers for Wii U. Nintendo finally started addressing the two issues holding the console back - price and lack of must-have games. The price is still a tad ($50) too high in my opinion and Nintendo has to work on cutting it next year, especially since now the games are finally coming and this week proves there is still life in the console and it can be saved. The patient is reacting to the cure. Something Vita didn't do when KZ:M was released - just goes to show how badly Sony is handling it and how lackluster the coming months are :( Once Mario Kart is out, it will be selling all right and another price cut on top of games like X and a few other big time exclusive games (I'm hoping for a Metroid Prime in 2014 - be it a new game or just Trilogy HD) will finally give it a steady footing in the market and once and forever drag out of the doomzone. I've always thought it will be easier to pull Wii U out of it, than Vita, but then again - Sony isn't putting a quarter of the effort Nintendo is putting in Wii U right now.
@ DerNebel, just stop it. You don't stand a chance. Zero999's attitude stems from the fact that he is the archetype of a Sony hating Nintendo fa... oh wait! Sheesh, almost did it, almost forgot you can't call someone a fanboy in this forum! Good thing I stopped the last moment and didn't do it. Was very close... :P Either way, you just can't win with such people, so there is no use fighting.
Wii U is a GCN 2 - I called it months before the release!
