And the unit I got is a bum unit that constantly freezes, and Nintendo wants 3 weeks to send a replacement. Fuckers.

Think the Wii U is the end of Nintendo in the home console market or do you think they'll try again? If they do, think they'll finally take off the kid gloves and make a system for everyone?

No. They will cling to that stupid-ass family model for at least one more try.

They are more likely to give up on consoles and go strictly mobile before they are likely to give up on family-oriented.

My Wii U made it through yesterday without freezing. I managed to play some Mario Kart 8. Nothing radical, just a fun continuation of the game. More courses, more shortcuts, more types of bikes/customizations you can do.

Called it.

That being said, we own one, and I just hooked it up to our new TV yesterday, and the kids love it cuz they were too young for Wii games the first time around.
