Nintendo are going to lose money big time. I admire their almost childlike delight at games that arent all big bros shooting arabs but its the first 1080p console, they shouldn't be going after family with yet another generation of dance and keep fit titles, but going after xbox and ps3 users directly. Those who want an upgrade in fidelity from their now aging systems by showing off something massive like bf3 and highlighting how much better visually and how larger the battles can be with a fuck ton of extras to get excited about is a prime market. Why would the same people who bought all that crap last time for the wii want to do it twice? Besides its arguable that the casual market has all but moved on to tablets and mobile, the family unit from the e3 conference sitting around a telly looking at photos or having a problem with who watches telly and who plays games feels covered already.
Plus the Wii U Pro Controller which steers so close to fraudulent with the xbox controller that I think the only difference is the position of the analog sticks is a practical admission (if any was needed) that the screen on the default controller is useless for most games. Batman Arkham city where its used as a inventory screen isnt going to change anyone's minds.
Will debase self for credits.
