Keep in mind, this isn't a Nintendo is doomed article, just an honest opinion of the current landscape.

"When it comes to the Wii U, I’ve been pretty darn quiet. In case the title above didn’t make it obvious, I’m not one of the millions of Wii U owners. Just this morning I was planning to put some cash aside to buy one in the next couple of months, but the day continued, and I changed my mind. Shortly after the announcement of Rayman Legends getting pushed back, something clicked; right now, there really isn’t much about the Wii U that gets me excited."
The Nintendo Switch is potentially nearing its lifespan, and several Wii U games haven't found their way over as ports yet.
I think it's better to leave games like AC: Amiibo Festival and Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash forgotten on the Wii U. Best case, they are mediocre games; worse case, they are very bad. It was a dark time for the Wii U, and the first only exists to sell Amiibo cards, whereas the second was put together in a couple of months with a shoestring budget, and it shows.
The rest of the list does have some really cool games, though. I would love to see a remake of Star Fox Zero with decent controls, and Xenoblade X doesn't require that much modification to work.
Same as Paper Mario color splash. One of the best wiiu games and getting even better with dual screen. Same reason why i prefer Splatoon 1
This article leaves out Nintendo's most controversial game to date devils Third.
I personally found the cover system really fun in that one compared to at the time most fps games completely lacking one.
Kirby is always ignored or forgotten by people, so good to see it mentioned here.
Play Kirby Canvas Curse on DS, and then play Rainbow Curse on Wii U, they're really fun and unique 'platformers' without any actual jumping.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
A new list goes over eight of the the most useless amiibo, ranging from the Shadow Mewtwo card to the Qbby figure.
Just like every single other console launch, there's always that dry spell that happens some months after launch. Don't worry, it'll pick up, just like the 3DS and PS3 did. I know I'll be picking up one later this year, same with the Vita.
Everything's going awry, and it doesn't seem like it'll be getting better until the later half of the year.
Yeah, I'm a die-hard Nintendo fan, and it's too dry for me to buy one yet. I'll probably get one next month sometime.
I want to play ME3 again.
I've been wanting to play Darksiders 2.
ZombiU sounds like it's getting a patch.
You really should always wait a few months before purchasing a new product. There's always going to be a few kinks and bugs to work through when releasing hardware.
Who wants to download/update for 2 hours right when you turn on your system?...
... you know who you are!
If i can AFFORD a wiiU i should still not buy a wiiU guys
Yeah, now is not a time to buy a Wii U. I would say March is a good time. Aliens Colonial Marines and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate both come out in then.
