Stick to your youtube channel. Most don't hate on Nintendo because most don't care about Nintendo. Sony and MS fans make fun of each other. They don't care about Nintendo because they don't think Nintendo counts. Only on this site and Nintendo sites do you hear about this. This isn't a diss to Nintendo or their fans at all but your average gamer doesn't care

Nintendo is treated more than fairly, actually with kid gloves sometimes.

"Average" being the key word here...;)

Have you thought that maybe some people just don't want an under powered system with limited 3rd party support?????????

Your average gamer reps most of the gamers. I rarely see people bashing Nintendo. I see Nintendo fans on here bashing other systems more than other fans

I'm pretty sure that the point the "haters" are trying to make is that the Wii U will never have the library to "save" it, that of course depends on your definition of "saved", I personally think the Wii U is headed straight for GC territory and non of its games is going to save it from that.

I know some Nintendo fans will not like this, but this has nothing to do with Nintendo being treated unfairly in the industry, it's just that the majority of the industry have just decided to face the fact that the Wii U is simply a system with an extremely limited appeal and thus limited potential for success (I personally would call it a textbook a example of how to not make your console), something that some of you still simply refuse to accept.

now you speak for the majority of the industry?

Nope, that's the general consensus that you get in the gaming media and industry (Why do you think, the thing is not supported by third parties? Wait, please spare me your answer, I can already imagine the kinda conspiracies you would build for this). Don't like it? Not my problem.

But you should, for your own sake, refrain from discussing Wii U sales anyway, based on past occasions that can only end embarrassing for you anyway.

I don't think he is speaking for the industry but looking at the current situation that is kind of how it looks. Not like he waas "hating" or "bashing" but it does seem to be the case....imo anyway

the people saying that about wii u = the same people who said that about wii/ds/3ds/every nintendo console =/= the majority of the industry.

that's the "general consensus" for literally every other nintendo platform but not even close to the "majority of the industry."

So this is a nintendo sympathy thread.

Games sell a console no doubt, but what will you say about the PS4. Why has it in 6 months outsold the wiiU which has been on the market for at least 3 times longer?

And if looking the PS3/360. Its not bashable failure when after 7yrs they were only like 20M behind the wii but were pulling overall better software numbers than it. But everything is bad for the wiiU. Hardware sales, which also limit its software sales, market perception...etc.

I don't think poeple should go out baselessly bashing the wiiU but nintendo fans also need to stop making excuses. Anyone with half a brain will know that the wiiU isn't going to be a 40M seller. That is not bad as long as you are enjoying the games on it.

nintendo has been in this exact same position twice before, N64 and GC. It also had great games then too. But look how those ended up.

$$$$$$ PROFITABLE €€€€€€€€

Ummmmm but that's not true because these things are not said for EVERY nintento console at all. This is being said about the Wii U because looking at the current situation that seems to be the case. Who cares about the other systems anyway? What do they have to do with the current situation of the Wii U? I know I am in agreement with what DerNebel is saying and I never said that about every nintendo console. 

Again it is not like he was bashing or hating on the Wii U he was just going by what is cleary right in front of all of us.
