It didn't take long for console warriors, fanboys and a brutal media to take aim at Nintendo's Wii U. The fledgling system was relentlessly teased for its name (seemingly even sillier than that of its predecessor) and a list of specifications certain to be outdone by its competitors. The device's novel tablet controller stayed judgment for a short time, but it didn't last long -- a weak launch lineup, a slow operating system and software delays soured an already judgmental community.
Wii U detractors eventually climbed atop their soapboxes to issue their final verdicts: Nintendo is doomed. A premature prophecy, perhaps, but one that became increasingly difficult to argue with: diminishing sales and third-party desertion set a negative tone for the Wii U's future.

If the game had a better software line up it would actually sell.. But at the moment its just being shrugged off as a kiddies' toy yet AGAIN!
Cant someone just crack it already?!? I'd rather use it for homebrew at the moment instead of it just laying there gathering DUST!
engadget lulz they still relevant?

If Nintendo advertises it as a cheaper, pure gaming console and brings the big first party, second party, indie, and third party games (Sega, Ubisoft, etc), it could form a place for itself in the next generation. Right now Sony and Nintendo have the only real next gen "gaming" consoles.
