I assume this article was written before Japan's Smash bros release? I'll wait a week :)

It was on a game scoop, which is just wrapping up a lot of news for a week. I believe this was on wednesday. I'm not sure what day game scoop airs, because I don't usually watch it.

I honestly never expected Smash to save the WiiU! Nothing can save the Wiiu at this point sadly..

it can be saved if they stop bundling the gamepad and drop the price to 180$

Why i left PC gaming

(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

Nah, I don't ever want to contradict IGN. I'm a mod there so it would put the site in a bad name. And even now, I'm not telling IGN off, I'm telling the study off.

I don't know.. The GameCube was once priced at $99 and it still sold like crap! I also don't see Nintendo taking rid of the GamePad anytime soon, if ever!
