Ah WiiU is giving xbone a run for it' money. Of course Xbone beat it already and will continue but WiiU has had some amazing games come out this last year and scheduled for this year. I'm actually much happier with it already than I ever was with the Wii.

The Wii U is being left in the shadows by the PS4 and XB1, well at least if the Wii U is capable of actually displaying those shadows! I kid I kid, but the Wii U is falling behind every day...

And it's been out a whole year longer! Maybe if Nintendo actually focused on the WiiU, rather than the damn 3DS, sales wouldn't be so low. At the same time, I can't blame them, the 3DS is outsells everything else in Japan.
