So, it seems highly likely that the ps4 has outsold the wii u worldwide in a matter of months, even though the wii u had a head start. The Wii U is laughly pathetic sales wise. Do you feel pity for this console or do you think it's well deserved? Should we all just pity this device that is so neglected and shunned by the masses? Should we be laughing at it? Are you already laughing!? lol

nope i pity the one's without the Wii U



I really don't. Nintendo tried to capitalize on yet another underpowered console where they can make as much money as possible for as little cost. Development costs and production costs. It just so happens that their greed caught up to them and they suffered because of it. They didn't catch the casual market and only the Nintendo fans will support them without third party support. With third parties dropping support because Nintendo fans don't support third parties, it's not going to draw as many non Nintendo fans.

I'll get a Wii U because I skipped the Wii and there are some good Wii U games, but Nintendo's greed got the better of them.  They did this to themselves.



The Wii U is currently my fourth favourite video gaming system, that's a good thing. There's pretty much no reason not to have it, atleast as your secondary console.

Yeah, it did a horrendous job sales-wise but it's a fine piece of hardware in my opinion.

The Wii U is like the little girl from Little Miss Sunshine. Was it out of its league? Yes. I still love it and I'd still get up on that stage and dance with it. It's a winner to me!

Nope. Nintendo is still in it. You just gotta believe. NOW BELIEVE.

Not that much. A lot of problems were self inflicted, such as not making the gamepad optional, not giving it more power, actually trying advertising, the name, delays, etc. But I do pity all the people that will miss out on games like 3D World and Tropical Freeze because they are on a console that lacks demand and awareness.



Nope we should pity the ones who don't own one yet.. That's where I belong, but it's only for financial issues, though I'll get a PS4 first.. Priorities.

Aww. That was sweet.. Enjoyed the movie by the way. Nintendo should watch it to feel proud.
