At the current performance, I am not sure if Nintendo should release ZeldaU and Xenoblade on WiiU or their next next-gen-system, to be honest.

Thank you, Ganon's follower! You made my fears come back.

Same thing that happened to the PS4 which did not make the 20m that were expected from it. Overestimations and overconfidence.

Nintendo must be wrong. They don't know their own shipments.

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

Many people overestimated Smash Bros Wii U.

It´s selling like mad but they missed the opportunity to bundle it with the console for the holiday season

Many (including Nintendo) felt that the release of Smash would have many go out and buy a Wii U regardless of it being bundled or not, but a bundle with Smash would have definitely increased in it's favor. Nintendo definitely dropped the ball on that.

Nintendo will beat their original sales predictions from last year so they are right on course according to Nintendo. They are also selling Amiibo hand over fist and already carved out a big market share in that market. They just need to make a adventure MMO that features Amiibos you can level up and you'll have one of the biggest Wii U sellers. If they make a Pokemon MMO with collectible pokemon Amiibos then I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo is printing money with Wii U at the end of the generation.

Nintendo would be back to swimming in a money pit like Scrooge McDuck if it plays this right. Then it could put two fingers in the air and tell all the haters to go suck it while getting freaked down by the baddest bitches.

In light of this, is there anyone out there who still thinks it will beat GC lifetime sales?

Nobody expected the Wii U to do so badly this year, especially in the holidays.

Nintendo dropped the ball.

My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
