This is really bad. But tbh all they have to do to make money back is release Pokemon on ios and android

what's really funny is that H3X thinks it's selling well now
sorry H3X but it's a commercial failure and a really shitty console

Like Earthbound
Accept it being a game and not a console

cronjob, the Wii U is not really shitty console. I have one and I quite enjoy it, so you are going to need to back up your statement with supported facts and evidence.

I don't know about the console itself but it's sort of the games that make it up. Apart from the Wii U being outrageously overpriced, there aren't yet a lot of games for it. The price, lack of library, and having to pretty much compete with the 3DS gives it no chance for selling well.

smash bros will fix everything hopefully

Nah, it's for 3DS too. Unless Wii U gets a bunch of awesome exclusives it's just going to be eclipsed by the 3DS.

HD and local multiplayer is why I chose Wii U over a 3DS, and I think the pricing makes sense, as it is $100 better than 3DS hardware. There are enough great games for me, but I guess im in the minority and don't need 10 new games a month.
