This console has to be the most underrated consoles ever. This console was a great emulator for past games, had great graphics ( since some people only look at graphics first), has some amazing First Party Games, and was really creative. Too bad it sold poorly this console had some more potential but at least the Switch has extremely helped Nintendo through the WiiU's rough years.

[@gavinfoote_Music_Surf]

If only Nintendo gave it a different name at first, it probably would've sold better......

[@CianDavies03]

When I first got the Wii U, I thought that you could take the Wii U Gamepad with you and disconnecting it from the TV, and I thought it was portable, but sadly that wasn't the case. The Switch is basically everything the Wii U SHOULD have been. The Gamepad is just a gimmicky controller. I do love the Wii U though, it's a brilliant console, but this has been one of the worst generations for me as a Nintendo supporter, because everyone cares about PS4 and Xbox One, and no one talks about the Wii U, even though it has just slightly surpassed the Xbox One in sales. The Switch is going to change this though, we will get revenge on Sony and Microsoft for ruining our dreams!

[@Gabito04]

WHOA!! Calm down, bro. Microsoft makes Windows XP, Windows 7 (why Windows Vista is not on the list? Good thing. Because Windows Vista is one of the most hated operating system EVER.) and Windows 10. (Again, Windows 8 is not on the list because this is still worse too.)

+Dr Plush Wii mote brought Nintendo back to the top in the 7th gen, and revolutionized gaming. It wasn't just for nerds anymore, grandpa and grandma could get into it, and I know mine did. But looking back on it, I think the gamecube controller is still the best, it feels natural and built for anyone's hands, plus it has all the buttons I need for more complex games. ~ VCSGaming (TheVCubeSolver's alt account)

It's a shame that the Wii U never really took off.

Not to say that it sucks (I own one), but it could've done a lot better. It's not a bad console at all, but it just doesn't match up to its competitors. ☹️

It's not really supposed to match up to its competitors, Nintendo always likes to bring a unique and new experience to the TV, Nintendo does things differently when it comes to their hardware and [sometimes] their games.

This and other wii u commercials are why the wii u did poorly, especially the third party support. The commercials make it look that the Wii u is targeted for a kids and family audience. Nintendo really needed better marketing, i mean that the Switch commercial did a really good job, it looks like something for everyone. I love the Wii U and it's exclusives, but it really needed better marketing in those days.

Besides, a lot people thought that the Wii U was an add on for the Wii, or at least a ''slim'' version of the Wii.

I had this for 4 years, since December 2013, amd damn it still works good. Unlike the Switch some people had problems with.

[@verybigboy]

And it felt like I had infinite storage space.

Jaime TheProGamer, watch it, the Switch is in the same generation of the WiiU.

[@bernardosia2267]

That's normal in the launch day

[@xxdeadqueenxx5715]

Should have just stuck with the Wii. Update the interface, update wifi connection, customization (multitude of console shell and interface design), clock the GPU, update graphics card, graphics option of 1080p instead of 480i, wireless sensor, add HDMI port, and more Wii store game selections. There, will hold up for another 5 years. I still have my Wii, great system. Don't need all that fancy stuff (controller pad like Wii U or switching platforms like the Switch). Had it for... well... five years lol.

I used to watch this everyday till i saved up enough money to purchase one myself. I felt so happy owning one. Sold it off after a year but when i owned it, i had lots of fun. Such nostalgia watching this video

wii u winner

[@ydn289]

ok I've never have a game console before.. but I prefer this console than the nintendo switch.. sure the switch is portable but the wii u are much more powerful and provide more functionality which actually make the gaming experience much more enjoyable and fun! 😁

[@azn9120]

No, the switch is more powerful because it is a new console.

[@BlazyAce]

Umm... the Switch is more powerful.

[@Borgify123]

I am saving for one! 60 euro to go!

[@MarkManuel15]

So did I when I heard about it, I saved money for about a month and then got it!

[@Borgify123]

I got mine!!!!!# Getting Lego city undercover + Super Mario 3D World tomorrow!!!!!! !!!

[@MarkManuel15]

Awesome dude! Congrats, enjoy it! I recommend WW HD if you want to get another game in the future. Save for Mario Kart, Bayonetta 2 and SSB!

[@Borgify123]

Thanks, I already pre-ordered Mario kart 8 and Super Smash Bros Wind waker hd= too expensive!

[@wiilover07]

I really don't know how people don't know what a Wii U is with a video like this. This video did a good job explaining what the Gamepad can do and it also said that it's an entirely new console.
