From what I've read they had fairly strong sales leading up to Christmas for the WiiU. It sold well in Japan for instance, but with little competition because the PS4 was late being released there and no XboxOne. They had enough sales to crash the online system with the number of new people trying to register accounts. But nowhere near the numbers they were projecting, of which may take quite a while before they hit their target, if ever. It cannot really compete with PS4 and XboxOne numbers.
But that matters little because they dominate with the 3DS. In terms of handhelds they have little competition. Nintendo can survive the WiiU if they're smart about it, so I doubt they'll be out of the game anytime soon.
They just need to stop doing the stupid gimmicks they pass off as innovation and focus on their strengths, making fun games that everyone can enjoy.
