I don't buy it- we've seen glimpses of Nintendo's quality-of-life plans, and they seem to involve devices that don't fit into the "replacement gaming venture" at all. The idea that it refers to a new console-style software platform seems to be mostly speculation...

It mostly seems to be rehashing the "Nintendo is dead" rant, but as far as I can tell that viewpoint is increasingly dead itself.

Well, that's an old article.. but I seriously doubt speculation and rumour get far.

They've adapted to some modern trends - like downloadable extras. With the compatibility of that on the Wii U, it'll give them a boost and let them provide extra content for games. Heck, they don't need to worry about bundling bonus content on-disc, and trying to keep it hidden.

In fact, they're doing quite nicely at the moment.

First of all, that article is six months old.

Secondly, lately, Nintendo has been turning a profit hand over fist.

The Wii U isn't going anywhere.

Right. I'll believe it when I see it. Until then this is just some dumbass spitballing.

I was considering selling my Wii U for a MacBook a while ago, but Bayonetta 2 made me reconsider ;) There's also stuff like Mario Kart 8, Smash 4, and probably some JRPGs :D

My friends on Facebook are always having console debates, and one of them brought up the article. Lemme ask you guys & girls something... Why does the Wii U get so much hate? Their internet service is free ain't it?

And it does look like it has some great games, I really like that Zombie U game. One of my Facebook friends was saying that Nintendo is gonna take a page from Sega and make games for the other systems... I don't ever see that happening at all.

Nintendo's been catching flack from console warriors forever. It's not even remotely just a Wii U issue. It's just that this time around, the Wii U has had relatively anemic sales.

"Nintendo's for kids" and similar comments. Those people would only consider a Mario game if it used those shades of brown and grey they like so much. Oh, and Mario running around with a rifle, sword, or similar too.
