The Wii had great marketing. They really appealed to casuals. I know my parents bought it since it was advertised as a family console but that's a key difference. The Wii was for families which means children, teenagers and adults. The Wii U tried to market exclusively to children. So parents saw it as a toy for their children rather than one for the entire family to enjoy. 250 dollars for family fun seems fair but that same price for a toy exclusive to your kids is not.

Jay Smith Odyssey was not a masterpiece. Here's why: •The ability to warp into enemies gets old really fast. And it spoils the game. I just hated the way the enemies were no real challenge to fight.

How is the game going to encourage people to take different routes, rather than just dying in the same place over and over again. •No time limit. I feel like a time limit would be cool on some levels. Also, collecting moons is repetative and boring

What's the deal with this hot buttered popcorn? I don't get it? Besides that, the real reason that thing failed was because Nintendo did a dumb move, and made the system in the same generation that was about to be obsolete in less than a year. They made two systems in the same current generation in which was about to die, where Sony and Microsoft already announced new generation consoles. They should've made a new generation console, and I that would've gave them a severe advantage, even if it would've been weaker.

Lots of people thought it was an add-on more because of the marketing rather than the naming. They focused so much on the gamepad that many parents thought it was just a $300 controller. And at the time, I wasn't watching too much TV, so from the few commercials I saw, they made it look like the Gamepad was just a new controller.

The GamePad is encrypted to the console, and the encryption has not been defeated as of 2019. So, if your GamePad does fail, you'll get an error about your GamePad is not responding. To solve it, you can use either a Pro Controller or a Wii Remote Plus with a Nunchuk. Or even you can repair your GamePad.

PC gaming is in no way suffering from cryptomining, neither does that have anything to do with having underestemating consoles. Also you don't have to estemate anything with tech, you have benchmarks and specs. Consoles are simply slower and less powerful then a PC.

I did not know about the existence of Wii U all the time of her life. I found out that Nintendo released the new console only when the announcement of the closure of the Wii U production appeared. I just didn’t read the news about the Wii U in the news feed because I thought this Wii U was a new Wii Zapper. Probably many people never found out about the new console for that reason. The main mistake of Nintendo is the use of the word Wii in the name of new console (Wii U). Wii has nothing to do with the Wii U game plan, respectively, and the console should have been called completely differently.
