The Wii U isn’t the failure everyone’s saying that it is. Here’s why.
There have been a fair share of complaints levelled at the Wii U, so much so that those who have invested in Nintendo's latest console may be reconsidering their purchase. However, look past all the speculation touted by naysayers of the "gimmicky" new system and you'll find that the Wii U isn't the failure it's alleged to be, and that it actually has a rather bright future ahead of it.
Here are 5 reasons why Wii U owners shouldn't be panicking.
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.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
No matter what I am buying this console,
If even 1st Party Games came out on it- that is saying a lot about their quality.
I dont currently own a wii-u and have read alot of users find the tablet gimmicky but I will leave that to myself to decide, my main worry for the wii-u and I have said before it needs proper 3rd party support because you cant just have exclusives alone, the wii-u needs the ( I buy 2 games a month gamers) and they wont be on board until the exclusives come, I just cant see many gamers just owning a wii-u for 1st and 3rd party games as they will get 3rd party on ps4 or sexbox 2, live by the sword die by the sword for nintendo this gen.
Wii U owners have never panicked to begin with.
All the thigns people are making an issue out of are only issues to people who never intended to get Wii U.
These aren't true or hardcore gamers in here trying to insult the Wii U by calling it gimmicky and always crying "Oh poor Nintendo, they better do XXXXX" etc... everytime a negative article pops up. Those are immature fanboys. Actual Wii U owners have never been worried.
They are just waiting for games. The games have been announced, and they will arrive sooner or later. That is all there is to it.

Okay, I'm set until Pikmin 3.
I bought the Wii U and love it right now i'm loving my purchase and don't regret it. I had mine pre ordered on day one came home got it connected did the update and got out during the download. The only issue I have now is Hulu freezes my system at times. But so far game wise have Zombie U, Darksiders and Nintendo land. I also have supported the indie movement with purchasing great games and love the new retro games they have.
I read a lot of comments about the doom and gloom but to be honest I work two jobs and by the time i quit my PT gig there will be new games out. But I have this feeling at E3 Nintendo is going to show proof that there serious. If they wanted to they could go into the crate and and do HD remakes of the games people love. But I have a feeling they know that and at E3 I think it will not be about the numbers but more the games.
