From GamesReviews:
"The Wii U is a struggling system - despite a recent resurgence - and the butt of everybody's joke, but one has to wonder: what happens if the Wii U does eventually 'blow up.' Unlikely, sure, but there were developers who said the PS3 was dead in the water only a few years ago, and look what happened there."
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "10 years. It’s been almost 10 years since the last mainline release in the Mario Kart series. Mario Kart 8 came out for the Wii U in 2014 and became the best-selling game for the system by a sizeable margin, and later pulled the same magic trick on the Nintendo Switch under the stage name Deluxe. All in all, it's sold nearly 70 million copies over the last decade and is still selling like hot cakes to this day, so it’s no wonder Nintendo has been in no rush to replace it. However, with rumors of a new system being just around the corner, and reports a few years back that a new Mario Kart is indeed under way, it seems the era of 8 might very well be drawing to a close. It’s an exciting prospect to be sure, but after two Nintendo systems with Mario Kart 8 at their heart, a lot of questions remain about how Nintendo will choose to follow it up."
I hope they just keep building on Mario Kart 8; Add a track-creation tool, and probably open it up to more Nintendo IPs with new tracks and characters, so Metroid, Punch Out, Starfox, Animal Crossing, etc etc.
there wont be a new one until the switch 2 comes out.
nintendo needs their bangers early on
Nintendo has recently restored Wii U Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon online after five months of being offline.
These are some of the greatest games similar to Blasphemous to play while waiting for the much-anticipated Blasphemous 2.
Wasn't this all a joke and taken out of context anyway?
The guy was joking. Move on with ur life
It was a joke.
It would be awesome if Minecraft was on my Wii U but I look forward to playing it on my PS4 more.
Just a joke, breh :/

Everyone makes fun of the Wii U because Nintendo dun goofed. What's up with the stupid name? And what's up with wasting that whole year headstart? Did they really think that because the Wii was such a huge success, that they could just sit around doing nothing and expect another 100M seller? Seriously, a whole freaking year of wasted opportunity. Know why the Xbox 360 was able to sell 80m+ consoles? Because they had a year headstart, and took every opportunity in that timeframe to steal half of the PS2's fanbase. What did Nintendo do? Oh, here, a new Mario and Wind Waker HD. Hooray! You'll LOVE Mario, and buy it.
And PS3 was "dead in the water" for a couple of years, but you know what they have that Nintendon't? Third-party support. Nintendo only caters to their own fanbase. The amount of new fans is extremely limited. On Playstation and Xbox, if you don't like their first-party offerings, you've got hundreds of third-party games to choose from. Dozens of new and fresh and creative IPs always come out each gen on Playstation and Xbox, while you almost always just get Mario and Zelda on Nintendo. Sure, new IPs do come out on Nintendo platforms, but for one announced, there are 5 more on PS360.
