This guy is an idiot.
I don’t think Wii U is going to be as popular as probably Nintendo thinks it’s going to be.
Why? Because it will be slightly less powerful than the PS420? Has Packturd forgotten that the Wii and PS2 (not counting the Dreamcast) were the least powerful systems of their respective generations, but also the most popular and best selling?
The Dreamcast was slightly less powerful than the PS2 and it failed, but being the least powerful wasn't the reason. The Saturn/32X/Sega CD fiasco and the fact Sega was near bankruptcy was the reason why the Dreamcast failed. Nintendo is no where near bankrupt so Packturd's logic is flawed and incorrect. Even an elementary school student could understand this, so why can't he?
I had a low opinion of Packturd to begin with, but this shows that not only can't he predict the future, but he doesn't even understand the past or present either. Being the least powerful system and first to market has usually resulted in a console winning by a landslide. I am not an "expert" like he is, but my amateur prediction is that the Wii U will be an overwhelming success, and being the first on the market will be a major reason for that, even if it does end up being slightly weaker than the competition.
