They just have to build that though and, as you know, that takes time.
Shipping 3 million units and selling 2 million in the first two months is not bad at all. As noted earlier, it's better than the others did and just worse than the Wii.
Yeah they dropped their estimates, which were ridiculously high, but it's by no means dire.
I seriously don't see why developers are dropping at such an early juncture.
Because you're not looking at the situation correctly. You keep pointing at relative launch numbers as a meaningful indicator when they clearly aren't. The current situation is bad. Even Nintendo is aware of this.
The 360 could afford a slow buildup as they defined the new generation. The PS3 was a disaster that nobody should be using as a metric where beating it is a success. The Wii U really needs to be carving its niche right now, not in a year from now when there's even more competition.
