PS4 and Xbox360 with more the 5 times the power of the WiiU.. how is the WiiU a 2.0 next gen console? Its more like a 1.2 version step up from the old Wii just to put it inline with the PS3 and Xbox360. The outlook for Nintendo isn't good!

The power of a console doesn't matter. Just look at what the Wii pulled off, it's the most sold console of this generation and it has the weakest hardware.

Besides, if the power of hardware is all that matters everyone would be using PCs.

I agree the outlook isn't good for the WiiU though. It is nowhere near as popular as the Wii was at launch, but I don't believe that's because of power.

I feel the Nintendo is aimed at the child demographic. Hardcore fps gamers is probably not their key market.

Hardcore FPS gamers were not the key market of consoles to begin with (and still are not), that's what PC is for.
