State of the Wii U

[Vampyr]

It's selling worse than the Gamecube.

Also, it has a different problem than the PS3.

The PS3 was something people wanted but it was too expensive.

The WiiU is something no one seems to want, even though it's relatively cheap.

I'm not sure what to think about it. I don't personally see it making a comeback, but at the same time...what is Nintendo going to do? They basically have to support the Wii U...they can't release another console. I know the 3DS is doing amazingly well, so they can maybe just ride on the money from that. I'm sure the Wii U will get an influx of sales when Smash Bros and Mario Kart come out, but I don't think it's going to be massive numbers.

It's going to be really interesting to see what happens. The 3DS started off slow but made a turn around. Maybe if Nintendo combos the release of Smash Bros with a price drop and a bundle?

The marketing for the Wii U has just been atrocious. Most people don't even seem to know it exists, and part of those that do think it's the same console as the Wii.
