People have been handwringing and desperately analyzing/criticizing the Wii U period but I'm still convinced the number one only reason it didn't sell after the first weekend is that the name makes it sound like a Wii accessory lol

it sounds extremely dumb but that's what a lot of analysts seem to think. Doesn't help that the initial advertisements all showed ppl using wii controllers with it

Tbh it probably has a lot to do with the Wii's latter days being really barren combined with the Wii U launch not having anything super exciting to get people interested again.

yeah no one knew what it was, and the few that read gaming news sites knew it didnt have any games so it was dead in the water, even if it really picked up later on

while im not surprised that the latest nintendo console that doesnt sound like an expansion pack sold like gangbusters, its really loving crazy that the weird console portable hybrid with uncomfortably small and kinda flimsy looking controllers outsold the wii almost instantly

I played the Wii one and was going through an AIDSy phase of using walkthroughs to find heart pieces and stuff so all the directions confused the gently caress out of me because the entire game world was mirrored for absolutely no reason
