Nintendo seems to be in a spot of bother; recently cutting the price of the Wii U and describing their competitors’ line-up as “meh” could surely be seen as a sign of trying to stay relevant in a very fast-moving next-gen race.

The Wii U does have some great first and third-party titles up its sleeve, but is it enough to keep the Wii U in the limelight alongside the Playstation 4 and Xbox One?
