No one in the media create seemed to acknowledge my short story, so I'll share it with you guys ^_^
The basics, relate to desperate wanting of immediate announcements, once fan-doom is proclaimed. I used the WiiU, as my example, but the message of silly fanboyness can float to any platform:
Its morning time in Japan. As the sun begins to rise, something (more than a mouse) is stirring from within the confines of Nintendo Co. limited. It seems Satoru Iwata has not been happy with the numbers of the Ultra Wii U2, which went on sale 16 minutes ago. To combat these low sales, Iwata has assembled a crack team of 5 Reggie Fils Ame clones, one Shigeru Miyamoto and a miniaturized, real life Nintendog.
As the 17th minute begins, murmurs of "Nintendoomed" are beginning their crescendo across the Internet, particularly within NeoGaf. You see, the sales are lower than expected (for a system that has been on sale for 17 minutes), especially from the perspective of many arm chair analysts.
Things feel so bad - so dirty, that the Nintendo elite core (a fun, colorful and loving bunch), are now beginning to soil themselves by the 18th minute. Their pleas for "panic mode", "release a trailer?!?" are not in vain. Iwata can hear them, for he has a magic pickle.
20 minutes have passed. Iwata and his sleuth team - clad in all black ninja attire, board their MarioPartyKart. The team, now desperate to prevent more fan soilings, are speeding at warp 5 through the many streets of Kyoto. They arrive by the 21st minute at an undisclosed developer compound. There is silence in the air, as everything inside is very top secret.
23 minutes have now passed, since the UltraWiiU2 has been on sale. Iwata can reassure all fans, that he and Nintendo has heard their cries, through use of his magic pickle. With great pride, Iwata takes the stage of a Nintendo Direct, proudly announcing an unprecedented partnership:
He will release a new game in 15 seconds, which was developed 12 seconds ago (in 12 seconds). Using the power of HD, this game will revolutionize the console world. You will use the new Gamepad to build Popsicle stick houses, while preventing fudge rain from destroying your creations. Think Jenga meets Minecraft, but developed in 12 seconds.
The world cheers! All is well! Everyone is pleased! (especially Hideki Kamiya, who can use his own brain)
The end.

It's so funny when people are hyperbolic about a system which launched 1-2 months ago. The trajectory can be changed. The Internet has a way of warping human perception of time and occurrence. It's not that bad. Enjoy the system, as stuff will unveil in due time.

Buy NGS+, anticipation rising for NGS2+ (which will apparently have improved graphics from NGS+)
