You have no interesting first party titles Nintendo. Your constant rehashing of your series has played them out.
You have little to no third party support.
Your hardware just barely surpasses the last gen consoles.
This is a no brainer... you didn't even try this generation. All you did was throw in a tablet controller that no one wanted. I advise you go back to the drawing board. Look at what made the SNES, N64, and Gamecube great.
Depth of field, if done right, can make a game look great. Often times however it looks pretty awful.
Take Witcher 2 for example. Depth of Field simply adds excessive blurring to background objects only a few feet away when in reality they'd be clear as day. The feature has been around on PCs before the last gen consoles, so it's not much of an advancement.
It really all depends on how the new consoles implement these features and how they are pulled off.
I've not seen much of that game myself, but I wager that is because, as I said, the WiiU is about on Par with last generation consoles. I'm betting that if Nintendo would allow the developers to go multiplatform with Bayonetta 2, it would look just as good on the other consoles.
Unfortunately for many other gamers who are either no interested in the WiiU's current game line-up, or it's controller scheme, Nintendo is holding one of their favorite series hostage now and not allowing them to go multiplatform. I suppose they hope to lure people in this way.
Except that Nintendo rehashes the same game series over and over and over every year. When is the last time they've had something new? Where is the next "Banjo Kazooie" kind of game on a nintendo console amid the sea of Legend of Zeldas, Mario Bros, etc.
Your argument is reversered, as all Nintendo has been churning out in the last few years are enough numerous rehashes to make call of duty games look few and far between.
As a Nintendo fan myself, I say to you, you have to realize they could do much better than they are.
