people arent THAT gullible. you cant fool them all the time. By that logic Walking Dead SI should have done way better that had actual ads.

sarcasm bra, look at his face lol

Actually the issue is different: it's just that Ninty wants Wii U to cater for hardcores, and hardcores are happy to stay fat! It must be genetics, because at the faculty of engineering I know many people that regularly go to the gym, some even play rugby, but they're almost all fat! When they aren't it's because they are puny human larvae (often involved in boy scout or religious or nerdy sci-fi or fantasy associations, it looks like this helps preserving them in the larval state) and secrete the excess fat through their skin, particularly through monster-sized pimples that weirdly survived on their faces after they got past their teens. And when I had to resume working out after a skiing accident, and I swam one hour/day plus gym for more than a year, I remained quite fat anyway! Actually I never got thin even during military service, running 5km/day plus push-ups and other exercises plus marching. You can't win against genetics, might as well surrender immediately and stop suffering.   

Anyhow, maybe casual gaming isn't doomed, after all, but this doesn't prove wrong the Golden Law of D0m3: whatever happens, Ninty is ALWAYS d0m3d.   

Nintendo hired a Celebrity trainer to market it, showed it off on Fox friends, and had advertisiements for it all over the place with the whole new year resolution and its code outside Stichkt. Are you a hermit?

NIntenod's been marketing you know/.

Nintendo did consumer research, there are still people who use wii fit U  500k in japan to be exact.
