The Wii U has been one of the least successful product launches in Nintendo’s history so far. 55,000 Wii U consoles were sold in the US in March, which is down from the 66,000 consoles Nintendo sold in February and the 57,000 consoles it sold in January. Nintendo could drop the price but there are still an insufficient number of core titles that are generating interest in the console.

Once again, apps/games are what makes or breaks a platform or device. And that is why iOS is such a good gaming platform, as it has such a diverse and extensive collection to choose from.
