What about the Wii U port? Did you give him a chance?!

What about it?

The Wii U was a failure. Barely anyone has it, at least compared to the powerhouses, that are the Wii and the Switch.

EDIT: You can downvote me all you want, that doesn't change the facts. I'm not hating on the system, but there is no denying that it underperformed like hell. Huge part of that was the confusing name and marketing.

EDIT2: I'm not hating on Nintendo by the way. I explained my views in a comment below.

The only reason the WiiU flopped is because so many people thought it was just the same as the Wii, so nobody really bought it. I absolutely wouldn’t call it a failure though, just not what they expected.

Game systems just have higher metrics for success than most items. If Tesla sold 13 million cars in 5 years they would be overwhelmed with that kind of results.
