The only way Nintendo was going to hit that Wii U forecast was if Grand Theft Auto V was a Wii U exclusive.
It's going to be interesting to see what happens in the next year regarding the competition. The PS4 has been selling out instantly on Amazon and at many B&M retailers every time a new shipment comes in, but right now it's all very much "launch hype"; I can see both the PS4 and Xbone dropping off for a while starting in February or March, as neither platform has more than a couple of maybe-worthwhile games that aren't just shinier versions of games for PS3 and 360, and once "OMG NEW SHINY" dies down, it's all about the games. Nintendo also has the advantage over Sony and Microsoft on the next-gen front in Japan, but that isn't saying much when the go-to plug-into-a-TV game system in Japan is going to continue to be the PS3 for the next four years anyway.
