This past week, two big gaming companies released earnings reports, and each had a very different story to tell. Nintendo (NTDOY -1.25%) revealed that its newest console, the Wii U, is underselling its six-year old Wii console.

With Grand Theft Auto V hitting store shelves this September, this indicates a solid future for the game developer.
