What does Nintendo need to do?

Nintendo is doing a lot of things right. They have decent indie support with a lot of variety with things like Road Rampage, Shovel Knight and Shadow of the Eternals (Yes, they're coming to PC, but Nintendo is the only console maker getting them). There are third party exclusives with Bayonetta 2 and Sonic Lost World. They have solid first party work, as always with the new 3D Mario and the upcoming Mario Kart.

The problem is that none of these games are coming out until the fall.

When it comes to games and exclusives, Nintendo is on the right track more than either Sony or Microsoft. They need to keep doing what they're doing. Just do it faster.

The other big one is advertising. For fuck's sake, ADVERTISE. I haven't seen any WiiU commercials anywhere. A price cut also would help. When there was a price cut in the UK, WiiU skyrocketed. But that's probably going to happen around the holidays or right before the competition launches.

Brand exclusives are a huge advantage for Nintendo. I have no interest in buying a Wii-U at the moment, but, if they brought out an awesome Pokemon game in the vein of Pokemon Stadium or Pokemon Snap or something similar, I would seriously consider getting one.
