Awesome reason to own a WiiU.
The PS4 does not directly play PS3/2/1 games either.
Perception is reality, those that control the media control the world.
I doubt people are making that much money from Let's Play videos of Nintendo games to kick up such a fuss. Just any negative news for Nintendo is great click-bait these days.
Never heard of it, don't care.
25 years of milking the cash cow.
Nintendo is over 100 years old. A few years of losses is nothing to them, after decades of profits.
