Wii U

SETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT (publ. 11/25/2012, pg. A2)
In a story about Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime, Fils-Aime incorrectly said that Nintendo makes a profit on the Wii U console after consumers buy one piece of software. The number is more than one, but the company declined to say the exact number.

I still see people bringing up this outright lie so I wanted to correct it.

Which may or may not be profitable.

This is useful information. I had heard that the statement had been retracted, but I wasn't able to find it anywhere via Google.

Though it also doesn't prove that the Wii U ISN'T making a profit at the current 3-game attach rate.

Bump!

Bump again, I fear that people that actually believe in this crap will never look at this lol

Thanks TC. More people need to know. Reggie is a downright liar and terrible representative for Nintendo.

If this is the direction the company is headed in I can see why the masses don't want to be a part of it.

Sokar, Eliot... lay off Tony. I can vouch for him. He's a top lad and a massive PS3 supporter. He's not an enemy here. - SomnusNemoris on the Sony Defense Force

Someone just posted today Wii U is sold at a loss of $21.
